A message to Libertarians about the FDA

by Jon Rappoport August 18, 2015 "When I ran for a seat in the US Congress in 1994, I was very aggressive in demanding that we go after the FDA as a rogue criminal agency.  Others, at the time, who were in favor of Health Freedom, said I should dial back my rhetoric; all we needed was a good law that would protect our right to take nutritional supplements.  They were wrong then, and they're still wrong."  (Running for Congress, Jon Rappoport) Libertarians see big government as an obstruction to a free-market economy. Some Libertarians believe the FDA is unnecessarily restraining commerce by driving up the cost of drugs and slow-tracking the approval of new drugs. This is not how the game works.  The FDA has clients, and those clients are the drug companies.  On the whole, the FDA speeds up its drug approvals and thereby unleashes a torrent of toxic compounds on the public, killing, at a conservative estimate, 100,000 Americans every year, or a million Americans per decade. The FDA is aiding and abetting criminal companies. There are various solutions to this ongoing catastrophe that would depend on the basic honesty of Big Pharma.  That honesty doesn't exist.  And the Dept. of Justice has no interest in waging a big-time war against Pharma. Even in a society where Libertarian philosophy was the guide, government, however limited, would still have the role of protecting citizens from poisoning and rank fraud. You could, of course, completely eliminate the government from having any say-so in the approval of medical drugs.  You could have the Wild West.  Let the buyer beware.  Whether this would result in more deaths per year is an open question.  It's quite possible such a free system would eventually make people more cautious about what drugs they ingest; and thus the number of deaths would diminish.  People wouldn't be able to rely on the government to tell them what's safe and what's dangerous.  In the long, long run, I believe this is so: no FDA is better than FDA. I've been writing and speaking about dangerous medical drugs for almost 30 years, and I haven't seen any limits placed on the basic FDA-Pharma partnership.  This isn't case of seeing a) government or b) corporations as the basic criminal.  They're both criminals, in collaboration with each other. In a half-sane society, the big drug companies would have been prosecuted to the sky long ago.  Their charters to do business in any state would have been revoked.  Their CEOs, executives, and scientists would have been put behind bars for life.  Even a limited federal government would have done that. Here is where I'm in accord with Libertarians: people have right and the freedom to refuse medication, under any circumstances, even where the experts claim death will be the inevitable outcome.  And people have the right to ingest any compounds they decide might help them. If that were the basis for the system, then government couldn't overwhelm the population with rules about mandatory vaccines and drugs. In case you hadn't noticed, all national health insurance plans, in whatever countries they've been established, are the road to perdition, because they can be manipulated to coerce citizens into accepting designated toxic medical treatments. The freedom of refusal is the only protection when crime bosses rule both government agencies (like the FDA) and pharmaceutical companies. Trying to reform Pharma or the government is a losing proposition. In countries other than the US, the FDA-type agencies are likewise stacked with Pharma-favoring allies.  These people have no conscience and no accountability.  They are dangerous criminals who should be locked up. But how is that possible when they are embedded within government? If benign UFOs from another solar system were stationed above Earth, observing civilization at work, one of the first things they would notice is the mass-poisoning operation I'm writing about in this article, especially because it is taking place under the cover of delivering health to the planet's population. Someone aboard one of the ships would say, "Oh yes, this is a typical 'greatest good for the greatest number' cover story, concealing a war against the people.  We see that everywhere." Save the village by destroying it.

If you want a clue about the FDA's brazen attitude, search the phrase, "FDA why learn about adverse drug reactions."  You'll find a page where the FDA readily admits, in capital letters, that 100,000 people die every year from the effects of medical drugs.  (The page was still there the last time I checked.)  Yet the FDA, the sole government agency responsible for certifying these drugs as safe and effective before they can be prescribed, takes zero responsibility for the death toll. You would think this is a major story for mainstream media, to say the least.  But you would be wrong. A million deaths per decade doesn't register on their radar, because they are in bed with the drug companies and the FDA. There are several sources for the 100,000 death statistic in this article.  The primary citation is: Dr. Barbara Starfield, Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, Journal of the American Medical Association, July 26, 2000, "Is US health really the best in the world?"  Not long before her death, I interviewed Dr. Starfield.  She told me no US government agency had ever contacted her about her findings. Why would the federal government get in touch with her?  It would be tantamount to confessing to mass murder.
