it is weird. medicine is supposed to help people but they make so much money off of it. and so many side effects. we are lab rats.
Medicine used to help people and that was back when there were doctors. Doctors try to locate the source of the illness/infection and deal directly with the problem. All they do now is treat symptoms and have no interest in finding out why someone is sick. That meanst that today all the men and women that call themselves doctors are just pill pushers. Just a type of legal drug dealers.
most people refuse to lose weight...refuse to stop smoking....refuse to stop eating processed foods if I were a doctor Id be pretty fed up of wasting my time too and I would also just treat the symptoms because thats what todays society wants,,,quick fixes
Yup i cant believe how bad stuff is that BIG PHARMA gives out now!! People say "OH ITS WORTH IT" .. They seem not to give a fuck what they are putting in thier bodies!! (Medicine didnt used to cause all these things) Its just a fucking scam to get people spending MORE MONEY just to get over something that started from the crap they were given!!
This is a good point. A lot of doctors are pretty corrupt as far as taking bonuses from pharmeutical companies and what not, but that doesn't negate the fact that most people simply do not want to take responsibility for their own health. Even some of the most sane, rational people I know get pissed off at their doctors when there is a health problem and their doctor can't find an immediate solution. They get mad, demand drugs, and don't consider for one second that their lifestyle might be the cause of their illness.
i have no idea what goes on up here regarding payoffs/corruption....but I know my own doctor gets plenty of samples from companies and he's pretty free with handing them out/prescribing them to people who need/want them and dont have much money or a great job with a drug plan here just in the last few months he's saved me hundreds ...with zero benefit to him that I can think of maybe im a willing test subject lol
You don't get usually get infections from drugs, but they may lower your resistance to infection. The information is out there, it's not the fault of "big pharma" that people aren't interested enough to ask their doctors and pharmacists about the effects and the purpose of what they are taking. Making something available to people is never wrong by itself.
Unfortunately most people have to deal with such things as, Constant publicity telling them to eat a burger, ribs, etc. A fast food restaurant on every corner in their town Grocery stores that stock aisle after aisle of flashy packaged processed food. A work schedule that makes the microwave a necessity. You can literally point at any part of our society and see that we are manipulated and toyed with by experts. They spend more money today making us buy the garbage than they do making the garbage. I hate to say it but our society is based on a sick sick sick system and it would fall apart if we suddenly got healthy. Doctors don't want the majority of people to loose weight. Because if western civilization's obesity problem disappeared, so would a large chunk of their profits. Think about it, Burger King and Camels cigarettes are a doctor's best friends. Same can be said for cancer, dysfunctional families, recreational drugs made from drain cleaner, etc. It's all part of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). So if you want to be a revolutionary, you don't need to be another Che Guavara. All you need to do is refuse to participate in their "web-of-lies" and go out and enjoy your life. In as natural and low tech manner as possible.
Also to not shoot up on heroin or snort drugs based on drain cleaner or eat fruits and vegetables that have not had their genetic codes modified, etc. But while were on the subject, I also want everyone to be literate, act responsibly and thereby doing away with a society that is neurotic and messed up. We listen and believe everyday in a government and industries that engage in fear mongering and make us feel insecure; Scared to the point we run to them for solutions and insecure to the point we have unjustified hangups and weird taboos. I don't doubt we are being told "some" truth about "some" things. But that "truth" is so small and so rare that we could just take down the entire establishment and throw it out. And in having done so, the only result would be huge improvements in health, education, personal safety and interpersonal skills. Can anyone imagine thousands of basement dwelling males would step outside and suddenly get a dose of vitamin D. While simultaneously learning that a simple ball can be far more fun than killing space aliens in a video game and that women don't bite when you talk to them. But most of all, they would learn to analyze issues for themselves before taking stand or playing insulted victim. Well, Here is giving some love to you and everyone. My cynicism probably because my leg hurts and my horse doesn't like my girlfriend. So here is some peace and love from a grumpy old man [IMG=http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/7029/531z.jpg][/IMG]
doctors generally get paid a lot of money to hand out those samples and later prescribe them. I'm not saying all doctors are corrupt but overall its a corrupt industry.
well mine gave me free shit twice and when the second batch is done he made it pretty clear that what I take is for short term use and we have to either wean off it or switch to something else..there will no prescription..he is just being generous to someone who has no drug plan (im self employed and just scraping by)...and Im in Canada ..I really dont see how the doctor could be making cash on the side by the pharm companies you can only be manipulated if you choose to be
99% of doctors (IN THE USA ANYWAY) are in this TO MAKE $$$$ .. The more people in thier office THE MORE THEY LOVE IT!!!!!!! -- They dont want you to get better because then YOU WONT BE SPENDING MONEY ON BIG-PHARMA MEDS!!
I wanted to bump this thread and see if anyone has anything else to point out. I still find this topic very interesting and i have seen more and more 'birth side effects' commercials from the use of drugs given to pregnant women. Does strong medicine given to new borns develope into life term illnesses, diseases, and learning disabilities? Something is very wrong here. Is this subject just another case of greed being too strong. Overwhelming greed, corruption, self-interests over the good for the people? Testing though is the only way to further develop medicine, well anything really in life must be tested to know wether to or not to use something, so which side are you supposed to take...?
Your basically playing ROULETTE with pharma based drugs! www.newswithviews.com/Ciola/greg2.htm I try to avoid any type of medicine..... (I usually do not take aspirins for headaches,etc..........) People often wonder why i am like this and when i try to tell them,they begin preaching,etc......
The pharmaceutical industry only needs to show a 51% effectiveness rating over a sugar pill to get approval from the FDA for a drug in three trials. They can run an unlimited number of trials to come up with those three and the negative trials are not held against them. Actually negative trials can't even be called up under the freedom of information act because they are considered "trade secrets" and are confidential, even when people died during those trials. This is one reason it's so hard to sue pharmaceutical companies in a court of law. Who controls who, the FDA or big Pharma?
