Ten Things That Are Missing from Obama's Health Care Reform Debate
Natural News ^

Posted on 08/20/2009 1:17:33 PM PDT by Scythian

#1) Ending the FDA's suppression of natural cures and safe, effective nutritional supplements.

#2) Initiating a real investment in public education to teach people about how to prevent disease with nutrition.

#3) Ending Big Pharma's monopoly on drug prices and drug patents (not to mention patents on human genes and animals).

#4) Restoring the ability for local doctors to practice local medicine without being controlled from bureaucrats in Washington.

#5) Cracking down on junk food advertising, soda advertising and pharmaceutical ads that convince people to purchase products that will only harm them.

#6) Banning dangerous chemical ingredients that cause diseases in the first place (aspartame, MSG, sodium nitrite, etc.)

#7) A real effort to improve school lunches and serve food that's nutritious instead of food that's cheap and convenient.

#8) Ending bizarre food subsidies on crops like corn that end up making high-fructose corn syrup the cheapest sweetener for manufacturers to use.

#9) Affirming health freedom for parents who wish to opt out of the current system of forced vaccinations and gunpoint-enforced chemotherapy.

#10) Requiring honest food labeling where irradiated and GMO foods are clearly labeled as such.


Please think about signing the HEALTH REVOLUTION PETITION if you watch his video it makes a lot of sense ...

Can't have that annoying First Amendment getting in the way of liberal utopia now, can we?

You REALLY want to post this kind of liberal drivel on FR?

This would result in no new drug development since it would not be profitable.

What federal restrictions??? Every other tv commercial is for some kind of phony boner pill or weight loss product. Thank you Orin Hatch and Bill Clinton.

Obama's back room deal already addresses this. The monopoly will continue in exchange for a 2% price break.

You eat crud because your momma brought you up wrong.

It isn't the school's job. Parents need to do right by their kids.

LSD, tobacco, alcohol, corn syrup, lead paint...

Nationalized health care certainly won't fix that.

Not to mention what the corn lobby has done to our gasoline with badditives like ethynol.

Free people are free to process the information given them and make their choices, it is all part of being free. Those who want to restrict freedom to advertise a soda pop, are really against freedom, and nothing they say should be taken seriously.

If you watch the video it he makes a lot of sense, we don’t need new treatments, we need to avoid disease, prevent it, it can be done.

A healthy nation has a future, a medicated nation is in decline ...

This is real revolution reform, the kind we need.
