Re: Scientific reading

I don't believe the word Conspiracy is accurate to describe the problems with "modern medicine". A doctors intent is not to harm, but the system works in a way to cause the same result. Doctors, insurance, researchers, business, and even government all have their hand in the money pot. There aren't doctors plotting illegal ways to harm patients, but there are doctors who "look the other way", who can only prescibe certain industry-approved pharmaceuticals according to law, and according to their own capitalistic needs. Herbs don't pay for a doctor's mortgage.

A doctor doesn't come to your house in the middle of the night and stab you in the heart with a knife, but if he prescribes you a drug that caused you to have heart failure, the insurance company gave you no safe natural alternatives with less side effects to pay for your treatment, the company you work for only provides insurance that follows "modern medicine practices" and pharmaceuticals, the pharmaceutical company cheated on research and used misleading and fraudulent marketing practices, and the government did nothing but slap them on the wrist if that, who's fault is it that that drug caused your heart failure? And what were the motives? Special interest (their own) and money. Sure, no one stabbed you in the heart with a knife, but if they have to choose between your health and their paycheck - they don't give a %^*# about you. They each turn their heads, and even if they wanted to they couldn't change the system - money is too powerful. This isn't conspiracy, it's nature, survival of the fittest, with money the key to survival. The health industry isn't about health, it's about jobs, paychecks, and stock markets.

Your statins are a good example. There are very low cost natural alternatives to statins which accomplish the same purpose. However, your doctor will only endorse and prescribe the marketed pharmaceutical version, not a natural version like herbs or liver flushes. Insurance does not cover natural remedies, only expensive marketed drugs. This is a downfall of capitalism - free and widely available treatments will be suppressed by the mechanics of the market, and marketing. There is no incentive to market something like a Liver Flush that won't pay for advertising and make profits. Some would argue the government should do things like research natural remedies like liver flushes, but the government is in the same boat... to make money.... Big Business drives government, especially a capitalistic government like ours. Alternative medicine is more likely driven by personal individuals who have their own best interest at heart. "Modern medicine" is driven by organized clubs, money and business.

Do you see a pattern - your endorsements just happen to be the expensive prescription-reuired marketed pharmaceuticals, and discredit cheap easily accessible treatments outside the money trail. Is it coincidence that all of your endorsements (like statins) follow a money trail, and are only connected to what some biased source tells you? Are you truly thinking for yourself or are you "doing what you are told" by "specialists with credentials" who are supposedly "smarter than you"? You should give yourself more credit, think for yourself.
