 "The only reasonable conclusion from the best scientific evidence available is that taking a statin while ignoring routine exercise, a healthy diet, and the dangers of smoking may be good for drug company profits but is not good for your health. It's not uncommon to hear doctors say that we should "just put statins in the water." Wherever that phrase came from, it is certainly not from unbiased research."- John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.) |
 "This is done strictly to eliminate competition for drug company profits and to fortify the drug company monopoly on health care. In the elite system of logic, profit is always more important than human health and life. The World Trade Organization is a massive fraud, a lie so big it is hard to comprehend.
CHAPTER
10
The logic of moral righteousness
The elite ruling class uses a system of logic based on humanism. In general, humanism as taught by Rockefeller is a form of morality based on individual needs and priorities, pleasure, and materialism—and void of a belief in God."- Byron J. Richards, Fight for Your Health: Exposing the FDA's Betrayal of America (Get the book.) |
 "Such discounts would reduce drug company profits. And Citizens for Better Medicare is just one of many groups opposing policies that would reduce drug prices, with major support from drug companies for advertising, for toll-free phone numbers, and for surveys.16
Using a nonprofit group in this way puts a friendly face on corporate interests, helps to obscure the policy's true sponsorship, and may even mask the underlying intent. The tactic has been called "passion branding" or cause-related marketing."- Richard A. Deyo M.D. M.P.H., Donald L.

 "If MSG were banned, drug company profits would plummet as MSG-induced diseases vanished.
It is obvious that the FDA has been captured by the chief MSG manufacturer, the Ajinomoto company, the food industries and their public relations organization, The Glutamate Association. By producing a multitude of spurious studies purportedly showing that MSG is safe as a food additive they can say with impunity, "The weight of the scientific evidence demonstrates that MSG is safe for human consumption."- Mike Adams, Grocery Warning: How to recognize and avoid the groceries that cause cancer, diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and other common diseases (Get the book.) |
 "There is no doubt that drug companies could not make as much on childhood vaccines as they could on remedies for high cholesterol or erectile dysfunction, but were they taking a loss? drug company profits are so large that one would hope the companies would be willing to make less profitable but vital drugs as a social service—and a thank-you to the public that subsidizes them so handsomely. But that is not the way this industry works. It all comes down to dollars and cents."- Marcia Angell, M.D., The Truth About the Drug Companies: How They Deceive Us and What to Do About It (Get the book.) |
 "Yet in this case, as in so many others, the official government regulators somehow seemed more interested in protecting drug company profits than the public's health.18
The pharmaceutical industry and its supporters defend their marketing campaigns as raising awareness about misunderstood diseases, and providing quality information about the latest medicines. Company executives talk of empowering consumers with advertising, and their paid celebrities are said to educate the public about health conditions via glossy magazine articles and on TV talk shows."- Ray Moynihan and Alan Cassels, Selling Sickness: How the World's Biggest Pharmaceutical Companies Are Turning Us All into Patients (Get the book.) |
