"America was rudely awakened to a new kind of danger on September 11, 2001: Terrorism. The attacks that day left 2,996 people dead, including the passengers on the four commercial airliners that were used as weapons. Many feel it was the most tragic day in U.S. history. Four commercial jets crashed that day. But what if six jumbo jets crashed every day in the United States, claiming the lives of 783,936 people every year? That would certainly qualify as a massive tragedy, wouldn't it? Well, forget "what if." The tragedy is happening right now. Over 750,000 people actually do die in the United States every year, although not from plane crashes. They die from something far more common and rarely perceived by the public as dangerous: modern medicine." Read the rest here http://www.newstarget.com/009278.html
so the next time your sick dont take a pill eat a terrorist! wow! now i wonder how deadly a terrorist on prescrition drugs could be ?.....................
I didn't post this to say that people shouldn't take medicine, I posted it to show people that there are HUNDREDS of bigger threats than terrorism, everyone thinks there is this MASSIVE terrorist threat in the world when you have more of a chance of being killed by taking prescription medicine, shouldn't that be looked itno and investigated JUST AS MUCH as terrorism? If it in fact kills more people a year, but of course not because big Pharm covers it up...
That doesn't surprise me, modern medicine has become a big business these days, the prime motivation being the bottom line: making money. Unfortunately, this often conflicts with the well-being of the folks receiving medical treatment. I do my best to avoid medical intervention, except when it's necessary, like when holistic methods won't do the trick.
western medicine has its rightful niche and that niche involves surgically reattaching severed limbs, not prescribing drugs for every aspect of life. the good news is that 10,000 year old eastern treatments are finally starting to become more popular in the western world...
