    Our government at work

    It is so ****ed up how our government filters everything. If you dont pay up they will destroy you.

    FDA warns public about fitness supplement allegedly linked to five deaths, but says nothing about pharmaceuticals that kill 100,000

    Not surprising in any way. More people die from RX meds every day that most anything else. There are 100,000s of thousands a year but yeah they dont talk about that. Wonder why? $$$$$$

    I really hope for a Large natural disaster such as meteor strike, multiple volcanic activity where a lot of the shelf's drop of into the ocean such as DC or a polar shift; most anything that will cause the government to be no longer relevant and we can start over.

    Yeah it will be hell and chaos for a while but I think it will be worth it in the long run and something needs to happen.

    The pharmaceutical and health products industry are consistently one of the top industries for federal campaign contributions. Politicians are going to protect these companies as much as they can.

    So do I. They are good to eat and they are spawning now so they are easy to catch.

    Pharmaceutical companies are far more powerful than government. Most couldn't fathom how powerful.

    You dont have to eliminate the government. You have to eliminate lobbying. Legal bribery
