Things in General.

 
This is an interesting website.  It is called the Pharma Death Clock.  Data sources are included.  http://pharmadeathclock.com/  Consider this disturbing fact.  Pharmaceutical medicine kills more people than all acts of war, terrorism, gun violence and murder COMBINED.

Big Pharma's efforts help bring socialized medicine to the US.   Quote: "For those free market purists who say no drug company should be forced to sell their drugs at a lower price than the market demands, I have some sobering information: The U.S. drug market is heavily skewed in favor of the pharmaceutical industry and hasn’t been free for decades. For example, even if we manufacture a drug in the states, once we’ve sent it abroad, it’s gone for good. Why? Because it’s illegal to import drugs, even drugs we already made. Needless to say, Pharma loves this, because it artificially decreases the supply of drugs, allowing them to hold Americans hostage to whatever price they want to charge. This is a much bigger violation of free market principles than 340B, which represents just two percent of the $374 billion American drug market."      http://finance.townhall.com/columnists/mytheosholt/2016/01/26/draft-n2109855/page/full


This item is a logical follow on to the previous item.   http://alternative-doctor.com/problems-with-science/medical-errors/?

This is a prime example of leftist elitists who use taxpayer money to pursue their personal, mostly unethical, ambitions.  And, it should stop and stop now.   http://www.erickontheradio.com/2015/11/why-does-global-warming-only-turn-muslims-into-terrorists/?

Big pharmaceuticals want to have the right to say who should be provided their products and not have to obtain FDA approval.  While the FDA is already largely an extension of the pharmaceutical industry they do not want even them to impede their marketing efforts.  What do you think?    http://www.medicine.news/2016-01-05-big-pharma-thinks-fda-is-a-joke.html

This item does a pretty good job of showing a possible link between political correctness and illogical behavior/victimhood of so many.  Quote: "The current official list of mental disorders hovers at 300. That’s 300—separately defined, treatable, and covered by insurance plans.  On a cultural level, this means the population is being tuned to the idea that they are vulnerable and at high risk. The right trigger at the right moment, a slight change in brain-chemical balance, and there it is: a disorder, with a title, a professional diagnosis, and the need for treatment.  This cultural programming—no surprise—has been a major factor in influencing people to believe they are victims. The obsessive focus on politically correct words that could offend and traumatize is, in reality, an extension of the psychiatric matrix.  A cascade of propaganda has been unleashed around the notion that people are helpless; they can’t rise above “triggering”; they must be attended to and given special consideration, even if their needs interfere with the interests of those who aren’t affected by “insensitive language.”"   https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2015/12/04/the-psychiatric-matrix-creates-the-politically-correct-victim/

We have reviewed a number of items detailing the destructive efforts ongoing by Monsanto.  Now we know more about what their contribution to the declining bee population will mean to us.   Quote: "Wild bees are disappearing in some of the nation's most crucial agricultural areas – a phenomenon that may have devastating effects on crops such as blueberries, almonds and apples."  And, "One thing that is clear is the fact that most, if not all, of the factors contributing to the decline of wild bee populations are directly caused by humans, which is tragically ironic, since – as many have pointed out, including Albert Einstein – if the bees completely disappear, so will we.   http://www.naturalnews.com/052563_bee_colonies_food_collapse_population_decline.html

Quote: "You probably want to know what’s actually in what you’re eating, right? Of course you do. That’s probably why you read the ingredients label. But even if you’re making responsible choices, there still might be more to that meal than you realize. There’s a movement that’s trying to keep you in the dark about genetically-modified organisms (GMOs), not to mention a host of other nasties in your food. You’ll want to stick around while I tell you seven things that you should really know about GMOs."    http://www.thesleuthjournal.com/7-things-know-gmos/

In the last Science item sent you I provided some disparaging remarks about Bill Nye (Science Guy).  Now there is even more reason to distrust him and to not believe anything he has to say.  He has apparently sold out what little integrity he had left to Monsanto.    http://www.naturalnews.com/052503_Bill_Nye_Monsanto_corporate_scientific_fraud.html

I have never paid much attention to this guy but what little I have made me think he seemed too much like the science guy (Bill Nye) for me.  Both come across more as showmen than honest to goodness scientists.  Given this article, assuming the author has his facts right, maybe the two are really more alike than not.   http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2015/12/21/scientists-who-are-actually-really-stupid-1-neil-degrasse-tyson/   Looks like someone else thinks Bill Nye is a joke, too.   http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/01/19/scientists-actually-really-stupid-2-bill-nye/
