American Obesity Means Big Fat Profits For The Food And Medical Industry


 

 Americans, particularly the ones is the South are are mostly fat pieces of shit and they had a lot of help getting that way. OINK! Obesity and gluttony translates into HUGE profits for the food and medical industries. Not surprisingly that filthy charlatan Dr Oz is in on the act. Fat girls swoon over Dr Oz and knowing that his show has become in part a cooking show. Cooking shows are porn for fat bitches. OINK!

Obesity and gluttony is responsible for at least 1/3 of our healthcare costs. Obesity and gluttony also raise the price of food. The average American eat beast consume more than double the calories of a responsible and lean American. Americans have become vulgar food-centric ego-centric food sluts who have been easily seduced by calorie laden nutritionally lacking junk food. People would like to place all the blame on fast food places such as McDonalds but the fact remains, if the fast food industry were to offer healthy food, the pigs would reject it. McDonalds and other fast food companies tried that and it failed.

While the American Medical Mafia is mostly responsible for the obscene high cost of healthcare Their promotion and enabling of the gluttonous American lifestyle along with the errand boys at the revolving door of the FDA is directly and indirectly responsible for the high cost of healthcare and the overall poor health of Americans. 

While it is undeniable that fat people are vulgar waddling weak-willed gluttons or junk food addicts, they had a lot of help becoming the ugly bags of blubber that we see shamelessly lumbering or riding their fatty scooters through Walmart. 

The unbridled greed  medical industry has not only enabled these pork beasts and land whales it has emboldened them. Keep in mind, fat parents pass their vulgar lifestyles and fattitude on to their little piglets. Obesity, gluttony and type 2 diabetes has been the new normal in America for decades and the American Medical Mafia couldn't be more thrilled. FDA corruption at its finest!

The FDA's Long History of Corruption

http://rlv.zcache.com/evil_fda_black_bumper_sticker-p128065356819246732z74sk_400.jpg

Going as far back as the 1950s -- and likely even much earlier than that -- the FDA has made it routine practice to ignore and even deny the dangers associated with drugs and medical devices when approving them. In the case of the Upjohn Company, for instance, which unveiled the antibiotic drug Panalba back in 1957, the FDA ignored many years of complaints about the drug's safety in order to protect the company's profits.


https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii9v56cMebSyjJF4O6ELlrmHeoXsYsZBFMulTNxNMTtoD2wHCGNV3ODGAPy2eTfq9BAyoG27W7hPBZZxhRe9HTVrWLtgoRUnksKt5nlI7ZKYHOQl9kZhkIQnkQDRD-eXqFJ7Arl9ZDyV8/s1600/big_pharma_600.jpg

At the time, data showed that as many as 20 percent of patients taking Panalba had suffered severe allergic reactions to the antibiotic, and yet the FDA did nothing. Even Upjohn's own research studies on Panalba showed that the drug was less effective and less safe than alternative drugs on the market, and still the FDA did nothing, effectively sheltering Upjohn's enormous profits from Panalba, which represented 12 percent of its overall profit earnings.

Sadly, the same is true today, as the drug industry and the FDA essentially work in tandem to get dangerous, but highly-profitable, drugs and medical devices to market. It is a win-win situation for both groups as the FDA gets kickbacks in the form of exorbitant new drug and medical device application fees, and the drug industry rakes in billions of dollars for blockbuster drug and device products that would never have been approved had science and facts been legitimately factored into the equation.

Who Owns The FDA?

The answer is simple. The FDA is owned by the food and medical industries.  The FDA is not a watchdog for Americans. The FDA is the lapdog of the food and drug industries.

What can be done to stop this unholy alliance? Answer... nothing legal.

What will stop the corruption? SEAL Team 6

There are a lot of qui tam whistle blower lawsuits against the companies who bribe FDA officials but nobody ever gets brought to justice. There are some fines and some mentions in the news but there is not justice.

Want justice?

15 Disturbing Facts About the FDA

15 Disturbing Facts About the FDA

[del.icio.us] [Digg] [Facebook] [Mixx] [Reddit] [StumbleUpon] [Twitter] [Email]

Americans count on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to regulate food and pharmaceutical items so that only the safest, most effective products hit the market. That’s definitely not the case, as these disturbing facts show. If you’re interested in pursuing a career in the medical field or just want to learn more about the processes of drug and food approval, consider these news stories and scandals that are inspiring FDA reform today.
  1. They keep important drug information off the label: Two drug safety experts called out the FDA in the fall of 2009 for leaving off important drug information when listing ingredients on labels. Even doctors were left in the dark about certain drug information, and in the case of the osteoporosis drug, Zometa, a slightly higher dose could increase the risk of death in cancer patients.
  2. Their tomato mistake ruined the industry: During one of the many salmonella outbreaks in the last few years, the FDA pointed to tomatoes as being the carrying culprit. People all over the country stopped eating tomatoes, a major ingredient in all types of foods made at home and in restaurants. The slow-down of the industry was a huge hit to farmers, and Florida lost most of its harvest because of the FDA’s cautioning. Turns out tomatoes had nothing to do with the outbreak whatsoever.
  3. Budget cuts might be coming: Earlier this year, Congress looked ready to cut funding to the FDA as with many other government agencies. The FDA is worried about handling the fallout from Japanese radiation, however, possibly swaying President Obama to override the cuts and in fact give more money to the FDA for 2012.
  4. The FDA approved canola oil: There’s a bit of debate among health experts and natural foodies about the safety of canola oil, which is no longer extracted from the somewhat toxic plant, rapeseed. Mayo Clinic blogger Katherine Zeratsky, R.D., L.D., points out that "canola oil is generally recognized as safe by the Food and Drug Administration," which isn’t a very strong stance one way or the other, and it has actually been banned in Europe.
  5. They failed to comment on a test subject’s suicide: A 19-year-old college student who was working as a test subject for the FDA as it researched a new antidepressant hanged herself in the lab of an Indianapolis-area drug company. Because the drug manufacturer hadn’t publicized any negative side effects about their product, the FDA was expected to share its findings and continue with research to attempt to find a reason for the suicide. They didn’t. Instead, the FDA said that if they released information about how the suicide and drug’s side effects were related, they would be releasing trade secrets, possibly compromising the drug company’s recipe and overall business.
  6. The FDA tends to "sit on" questionable data: In a 2009 New York Times article, it was revealed that the FDA has a nasty habit — it "often sits on data that raise questions about a drug’s safety or therapeutic value." In other words, FDA agents keep quiet when they learn about adverse side effects, including shocking symptoms like increased heart attack risks in one painkiller and an increase in children’s suicidal thoughts and behaviors in antidepressants. Their obsession with keeping trade secrets safe inspired a call for more transparency in the process of drug approval.
  7. They were partly behind the Vioxx deaths: Along with drug company Merck, the FDA was blamed for promoting and refusing to recall the drug Vioxx, which "caused an untold number of fatalities among the American population," according to NaturalNews.com. Apparently, the FDA was pressed to run additional clinical trials after Vioxx caused heart attacks, but the FDA approved the drug anyway, without extra research or recalls.
  8. Just because a drug is approved, doesn’t mean the FDA believes it works well: The main rule of thumb for drug approval is that if its benefits outweigh its side effects, it gets the go-ahead to hit the market. But while many Americans think that FDA-approved medicine means the drug is high quality, it may not be.
  9. FDA leaders have chosen to side with drug companies, and ignore science: Two years ago, a group of FDA scientists wrote a letter to President Obama asking for wholesale change of the organization, as they believed leaders were corrupt and consistently ignoring their research, and instead choosing to promote drug companies. At first, some believed the letter was a fake, but when it was validated, a closer look of the letter revealed that the scientists also accused the FDA of actually breaking their own laws, "altering scientific findings," removing Black Box warnings, made false statements in FDA documents, and the approval of a mammogram device after FDA experts voted unanimously against it.
  10. They re-approved a drug that killed 80,000 people: Many health and patient advocates felt that the diabetes drug Avandia should be taken off the market after it was suspected of killing around 80,000 people, but after a special meeting was called, the FDA disagreed. Although the FDA proved through a vote that they believed the drug was dangerous, they decided stronger warning labels would be a sufficient solution.
  11. Most Americans don’t approve of the FDA’s alleged neutrality: Four out of five Americans believe that the FDA is too heavily influenced by drug companies, and 96% of Americans want the government to put warning labels on drugs with known safety concerns.
  12. It’s all relative: In a report by NaturalNews.com, the FDA’s twisted logic for drug approval was unwound. Their decisions are based on relative comparisons — not on drug safety but on drug deadliness. If a drug is no more deadly than any other comparable drug on the market, it can be approved.
  13. Stock scandal: A FDA chemist was charged with insider trading, stockpiling — along with his son — $3.6 million. He used inside information about drug approvals to make calculated trades.
  14. "Extraordinarily complex" data is an excuse for making the wrong decisions: When called out on the Avandia scandal, FDA officers blamed the drug company Glaxo for throwing "extraordinarily complex" data at them, apparently thinking that was a valid excuse for making a bad decision endangering tens of thousands of lives.
  15. They were reluctant to pursue criminal prosecutions: Last spring, the FDA began stepping up its criminal prosecutions of offending drug and food company executives after it was pressured by Congress to do so. Critics of the FDA had noticed that the agency was being too lax with its investigations and had "fallen short" in terms of developing performance standards in its criminal unit.

The Real Threat of Pharmaceuticals

The Real Threat of Pharmaceutical Drugs

http://www.whale.to/b/nexus.jpg

LINK NATURAL NEWS

Interestingly, the survey did not ask consumers the following question: How many Americans do you think is acceptable for the drug companies to kill each year?

Because right now, that number is, conservatively, about 100,000 American citizens. More realistic estimates put it at double that number, or 200,000. I've often stated that pharmaceuticals kill more Americans each year than diet in the entire Vietnam War, and the number of Americans killed by acts of terrorism are dwarfed by the number killed by prescription drugs that the FDA and drug companies unquestionably knew were killing people. It's not that these deaths were truly accidental... they were fully documented but ignored anyway by an industry that is now clearly a very real threat to the health and safety of the American people.

http://www.gaia-health.com/images251/000273-titleimage.jpg

This is no exaggeration: The number of people killed by FDA-approved pharmaceuticals since 9/11 is equivalent to dropping a nuclear bomb on a major U.S. city. International terrorists could not even hope to cause the number of casualties in the United States that have been achieved by the drug companies working in conspiracy with the FDA.

http://rlv.zcache.com/evil_fda_black_bumper_sticker-p128065356819246732z74sk_400.jpg




If we don't put limits on the influence and corruption of the drug companies by banning drug ads and demanding serious FDA reforms, the body count will only get worse. Consumers are finally waking up to this reality, and they're increasingly demanding "get tough" solutions that would require the FDA to protect the people instead of protecting Big Pharma profits.

As Bill Baughan, a senior policy analyst with Consumers Union (Consumer Reports), said, "Consumers expect Congress to take their concerns about drug safety seriously, and deliver legislation that will prevent future Vioxx-type disasters. Failure to act this year on the strongest possible bill, when more than 80 pecent of Americans agree that Congress should do whatever is necessary to ensure drug safety, would equate to gross legislative malpractice."

Contact The House Committe on Health: Report FDA Corruption

http://fitmontclair.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/fda-corrupt.jpg

CONTACT CONGRESS ABOUT FDA CORRUPTION

This may sound like an exercise in futility and it may be but there is always that off chance that you message may fall on the ears of someone like Senator Bernie Sanders, former Florida congressman Alan Grayson or a Ron Paul or a Dennis Kucinich. At one time time some of the people on the committee health had a soul.  Call and fax these fuck wads. Jam their phone lines. Jam their fax machines. Jam your foot up their crooked asses.

 

All of these whores have district offices with phone, Email, snail mail and fax. Contact them often and get your friends to do the same. There are many free fax services. I like Fax Zero. CLICK HERE TO SEND A FREE FAX

 

What you should say in your fax, letters, email, voice mails and phone calls.

 

There is a lot that they need to hear. I don't know what they know and what they don't know.  Keep in mind that they all take bribes from the medical, pharmaceutical, food and tobacco industry PACs and lobbies. 

 

Keep it factual. Ask them the tough questions and demand answers in writing. Keep demanding answers. Come election time let them know that you will be at their rallies looking for answers and generally fucking with them.

 

One of the latest FDA pharmaceutical scandals is over the deadly prescription drug Plavix.  Google Plavix law suits to get find out what the crooks at Bristol Meyers Squibb did to deceive doctors, rip off patients and main and kill thousands of Americans while they made tens of billions in profits or CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS This is just one talking point.

 

Google the search FDA corruption and do it everyday to create a Google bomb.  Read the articles you find to obtain more information and talking points. You will see how scientists were instructed to lie. You will read that the salaries of FDA officials are paid by big pharma. You will find thing that will curl your hair.

 

You may want to recount a personal story about adverse drug reactions that maimed or killed a loved one. You may want to complain about a medical device that maimed or killed someone you know. You may want to discuss the fact that health care in the US accounts for 20% of  US GDP.

FDA Corruption

This blog is dedicated to exposing FDA and medical industry corruption. Of all the government agencies within the US government and of all the industries in the US the FDA and the medical industries are by far and away the most evil and most corrupt.



http://www.gaia-health.com/images201/000201-titleimage.jpg
Please help us spread the word about the FDA and its medical industry masters.
