Re: Alternative methods/insurace?

[Guest guest]

As long as 90% of Insurer, HMO, and Big Pharma go to one political party do

not, I repeat, do not expect a change anytime soon.

Right now doctors, because of legislation favoring them, are about 75% in

favor of one party.

With their bucks behind the machine....what chance does Joe Sick have?

Larry:

You are correct there have been many advances, however, the forces 'against'

the advancements are also making headway. Either we sway the minds of those

politicians being bought or we may see the kind of suppression against

natural methods take a meaner course.

Right now, because of some that have offered products with 'less' than good

results or because of some overblown 'danger' to the public, controls over

supplements are currently the big push.

In the past the vitamin/Health Food stores, have been able to lobby enough

to protect themselves and us. Because of various new programs, such as

NAFTA and other World Trade Agreements, attacks upon our right to obtain

what we believe we need may be in jeopardy.

We may not wake up tomorrow to find a padlock on our favorite Health Food

Store door..........they don't work that way............they will try to

gain control in seemingly harmless ways and we (generally) will accept this

only to find that they have controlled everything.

If we don't think that 'they' have the power to do this ask yourself if you

can get Laetrile injections at your favorite Holistic physician's office.

Ask the doctor that dared write about Vitamin D and the overuse of Sun

Screens what it is like to be demoted because he 'dared' to go against the

powers that be. Today it is Ephedra.............tomorrow Vitamins that are

higher than the Recommended Daily dose........the day after? Anything!

Salute the advances? Absolutely...........be wary of government control?

ABSOLUTELY! Be quick to rise up and bombard our legislators and alert

everyone you know................do not sit back and leave it to others to

defend your rights. Our rights are only rights when we can exercise

them.

No I don't subscribe to those groups.................did you ask because of

my writing style? ha ha.

Anyway to support your thoughts that there are 'advancements' in alternative

practices going on here's what Moss said in today's newsletter:

This is only a portion:

" All in all, I came away very impressed at the growth of CAM in the western

half of the vast and beautiful country of Canada. CAM is already strong

there and there is a growing interest in bringing the best of CAM cancer

treatments to this region and in establishing co-operative links with

like-minded practitioners around the world. In a period in which alternative

theories and treatments of cancer are increasingly under attack, it is

heartening to see such burgeoning interest at first hand. "

However he does bring out the " under attack " concerns we all have.

Let's all work hard to keep this good trend going and to beat down those

that would let greed be their only guide.
