THE SURGICAL-PRESCRIPTION (SUPR) ESTABLISHMENT vs UNCONVENTIONAL THERAPY-HERBAL REMEDY (UTHR) ALTERNATIVE

The SUPR medical establishment is like a fortified city. SUPRs shoot arrows haphazardly at any approaching stranger. Nothing good, they think, can come from outside their walls. SUPRs own science; all rivals are quacks. They oust traitors from their midst who threaten their prejudices. The AMA and Big Pharma are their forts, with the USDA, EPA, DEA, FTC and uuniversity medical faculties as miltias and legislators as servants. The media is their voice. These do not comprise a conspiracy, but are effectively governed by groupthink and self-interest.
SUPRs have massive political power. They make it impossible for us to buy safe raw milk. They force excessive vaccinations on our children. They gai
FDA approval for ineffective and dangerous drugs over the objections of FDA scientists. They censor UTHR speech. They make it impossible for us to get effective UTHR medical treatment. They make medical care etremely espensive for us, and profitable for them. Others are heard in Congress only rarely when very large numbers of the public are stirred.

BIG PHARMA: The drug industry has a trade organization, PhRMA (Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America) which promotes and lobbies - (not research and manufacturing.) The term "Big Pharma" refers to the whole industry, not just PhRMA.
Big Pharma is a monster with many faces and many tentacles.
One face is beautiful. It is benevolent, generous, brilliant; a savior of suffering people. It heals our diseases. Whatever could we do without it? This face supplies our family doctor with the materials he needs.
One face is sober. This one produces profits for investors. This is necessary, and good, but supported by the next face.
This face is blank, and hidden. It can do all kinds of mischief, unseen and unnoticed. This one controls the tentacles.
A tentacle wriggles its way through the medical profession, spreading a virus that uses the DNA of medical providers to produce prescriptions.
A tentacle invades universities, producing research and teaching favorable to Big Pharma.
A tentacle invades governemts, producing favorable legislation and favorable bureaucrats and agencies. This includes many nations, United Nations, the European Union and treaties and trade agreements between nations.
A tentacle overwhelms information systems, news agencies and public media.
One tentacle has a claw that tears apart its opposition. It poses as its own competition, becoming a part of whateve might restrain the blank face. It makes vitamins and supplements, becoming the biggest part of that industry. Your local drug store has shelves of products that make the supplement industry look bad. Big Pharma corrupts the supplement industry and its organizations.
The tentacles work together to invade the minds of the public, making them think what Big Pharma wants them to think.
Money buy lies and allies.

AMA - American Medical association: This doctor's mutual protection society was formed 160 years ago to defend the interests of medical doctors and to destroy competition. Healthy people and alternative medical providers are not in their interest, and the AMA has done much to oppose or eliminate both. The public has been given the impression that the AMA stands to promote good medicine. No. They promote expensive and profitable medical practice. The JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association is revered as one of the best sources of medical information, but you won't find the whole truth there.
You won't find the whole truth anywhere. The book HONEST NUTRITION is an attempt to get some of it. I wrote it in response to many stories I hear of costly and failing medical treatment. Some modern medical treatment is truly wonderful, but the bulk of it is shallow routine cook-book that ignores problems and leaves people suffering and dying of chronic diseases.
I believe that SUPRs and UTHRs working togehter with open minds could provide much improved medical care for a third of the cost. Where are the open minds?
