Pharma Drugs Masking a Much, Much Bigger Problem

Here are some fascinating stats about our health care system (below).  With  a 14 trillion dollar (US) gross national product, the U.S. is on its way to spending WAY, WAY too much in medical health benefits, as you can see.  The model of "symptom-->drug-->side-effects-->more drugs-->repeat" is highly problematic since the CAUSE is never addressed.  People aren't sick because they have a deficiency of pharma drugs (as the tagline for this blog openly declares).  They are sick because they don't understand that symptoms are merely CLUES to a deeper issue--one that must be uncovered and addressed if the symptoms are to stop.

Drugs MASK the symptoms which a) makes it almost impossible to get to the bottom of the situation and b) gives the patient the false idea that the deeper cause/disorder has been resolved.  It hasn't. Now it's just hiding.  So a few more days/weeks/months later, up it pops again only now it's worse.  What was once a bad case of hemmorhoids (symptom) is now a major vascular disorder requiring expensive surgery to save the life.  Not even the surgery has addressed the actual problem (probably dietary).

We are on track as a country for a total breakdown in this health care system.  There are $900 TRILLION in unfunded but promised Medicare and Social Security benefits right now [1].  If that were distributed to every American, regardless of age (even infants), we would all have to come up with $300,000 or 25x the current household income.

What does this mean?

Another psychiatrist exposed as a fraud

I doubt whether, in any real science, a member of this "caliber" would be able to last this long before he is outed and exposed as a complete fraud.  While Sharma's shame is rightfully the subject of this particular article, there is a far deeper issue(s) here starting with our (as in "We the people...") standards for what we accept as "scientific".  Our tolerance must be so low that we have rendered ourselves blind to the fact that a subject like psychiatry must be a bunch of bunk after all.  Otherwise this guy would have never made it this far. 

I mean, if this same thing were to happen in, say, the aerospace industry, the evidence of planes dropping from the sky, or engines blowing up, or what have you, would expose him as a non-scientist almost immediately, don't you think?  In psychiatry, I think they are so used to hearing themselves continuously espouse so much absolute shite that they can't tell the difference between a faker and the real McCoy any longer.

"A psychiatrist who regularly appeared as an expert on the BBC [my emphasis] has been struck off the medical register after he lied about his academic qualifications and performed unethical drugs tests on mentally ill patients." 

"You're already on drugs!"

Medicos aren't about true health anymore

I'm sitting here working  in a restaurant and can't help but overhear three drug reps collaborating on a project.  They are working on what sounds like a presentation to a group of doctors they are planning on doing at the end of the week.  There are lots of folders around and impressive looking brochures for their drug (sounds like it's an antibiotic).  And they are impeccably dressed.  The guys both look like they just bought their shoes about 5 minutes ago and the woman is incredibly well manicured.  They are obviously very well paid.

As they work through what they are going to say at this presentation, I'm hearing phrases like:

"...what if we told them something like 'doctor, we don't expect you to use it on every patient, but certainly on the ones which need it..."

At some point the medical establishment lost their grip on health.   It's all about drugs at this point and the drug reps are the ones in the driver's seat.  Since when does a drug rep qualify to even imply the proper use for a drug or which patients should or shouldn't get it?

Our pediatrician is a good lady and she is doing her best, but I about all she does for our kids these days is dispense antibiotics.   There's no talk of nutrition  or  anything which might make for a healthier child on a preventative kind of basis.

This troubles me a great deal.  We don't get sick  because we are suffering from drug deficiencies.  By the time we have come to the point where a patentable chemical has to be ingested, we have already let things go way to far.

"The Drugs I Need"

FDA tyranny and the censorship of cherry health facts (opinion)

"Gandhi once initiated the Salt March to Dandi (the "Salt Satyagraha") in defiance of the tyrannical salt taxation rules of the occupying British government, and there he and his followers intentionally violated the law by harvesting salt from the waters. It was a practice that had been carried out for centuries by the people there, and one that provides essential minerals for human health. Gandhi’s defiance may teach us something very important about modern times, and that is that when a law is so unjust as to stand in violation of fundamental human rights, it is not only the right, but the duty of individuals to stand in firm opposition to that law and to challenge whatever authority unjustly imposes that law upon the people."
