You may have to wait until tomorrow to catch today’s episode there, or maybe even longer. I’m not sure how it works.
THRIVE DC goes to change.org
Also search THRIVE theory of change, THRIVE and 4H, THRIVE and homelessness, THRIVE and immigration, women, THRIVE and East Africa, THRIVE and health, etc., etc.
****Yeah Bernays was a hell of a salesman. Unfortunately a major part of his life was spent manipulating the public.****
Anyone remember the book THE HIDDEN PERSUADERS by VANCE PACKARD?
Interesting. Sounds like he may have a slight anti capitalist bent. However expecting honest non manipulative sales practices is often seen as anticapitalist here at FR.

Do a search sometime on fluoridated water. I believe you will be glad it is not in your water.
Now for you liking bacon. It is less harmful than a lot of things the government tells you to eat.
The fat in bacon is good for you just like the fat in butter, whole milk and cheese. They don’t cause near the bad effects their replacements do. Margarine and other trans fats were created in a lab. They are not natural. Our body cannot process them.
Good fat does not cause body fat to a harmful degree, excess sugar does. Especially in the form of High Fructose Corn Syrup.
Next time you are in a grocery store, look at the ingredients and calorie info on the low fat diet products. They all have low fat calories but they more than make up for it by adding sugar. Usually in the form of corn syrup thanks to the corn lobby.
Look how many of those “diet’ products are in the carts of people who are over weight.
I lost 60 lb and my wife 20. We have kept it off by not eating the things our government advises us to eat.
We are in our 60s and are on no pharmaceuticals and have no health problems. We do take supplements.
If you want to know more about the hazards of Fructose you can read it here. The first movie at the link is an hour and a half. I watched it a couple of times. Most of the info is in Dr. Mercola’s comment. Both he and the doctor in the film makes it clear it is in almost every processed food we eat and causes most of the health problems we have today. Sugary drinks are the worst. BVB
Obama was the misdirection last night.
I’m a big fan of honesty and ethics. Bernays promoted both good and bad products and politics but my real issue with him was the manipulation of the masses he obviously felt superior to.
There, much more accurate... photoshop op anyone ?

will have to do some more research to find out who all is involved.
Thank you.
A facebook search for ‘Together we Thrive’ shows that it is linked with Forwardforchange.com. However, Forwardforchange.com does not appear to be a working link at this time. Might be something to keep an eye on as an indication that it certainly was linked to a campaign method.
Just an fyi for you all.

Personally I doubt Glenn really thinks Obama did a great job last night. I suspect he’s playing a careful game until more info comes out.”
Quite a number of the right gave the same glowing review. IMO though, had they said anything less, the focus would immediately have been made that WE the critics had turned the ‘service’ into political fodder...and not the obvious pep rally/t-shirt agenda of the left.
I haven’t read much about the actual printing of the t-shirts but am wondering how many were actually printed and by whom given the time limit from order placement to distribution. Seems to me it would have had to ‘av been quite an operation!
From the Together We Thrive facebook page:
http://www.ForwardForChange.com
Mission:A simple idea: Start speaking and acting in ways that bring us together rather than tear us apart. Bring our differing views to the table with unity as our core principle, and together we can create the building blocks to compromise. Move forward for positive change while leaving behind the extreme negativity and hate. We can accomplish this not only in our government but as a nation. It’s up to each and every one of us individually to move in a positive direction in our lives. Together We Thrive, indeed..
The Thrive T-shirt info. Kind of funny that the company (Youth Monument) doesn’t want to answer any questions or do any self promotion.

You mean that’s actually Bernays sauce on my Eggs Benedict?
LOL!
That’s alright. God knows the nitty gritty. We just need prayers.
Seems we have similar information and life styles.
Husband has been reading alternative/integrative docs newletters for years. He informs himself just about daily, and family turns to him for info and advice. He has followed nutrition for over 40 years - since college days!
We have also done battle in our area regarding fluoridation in drinking water. Whenever the subject subsides and seems to go away, back it comes when no one’s looking, it seems.
Thank goodness for water filtering, and good bottled water, at least - - -
