Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Fuel,
and Big Fascism

What form of government are we supposed to have? The Founders of this country
bequeathed us a system we used to call Free Enterprise, in which the
government was supposed to leave business alone. Because of that system,
endorsed by scripture, we became the greatest nation known to history.
Now, what kind of system do we actually have today? Because the original
system has been perverted – first by ordinary criminals, then
by the conspiracy for world government – the system we have
now, the perversion, began as “mercantilism” and today
is best described as Fascism.
“Mercantilism” was the system the Founding Fathers designed our new country to reject.
In part, it meant government control of the economy and colonies controlled
by force of arms. One example of a mercantilist enterprise was the
British East India Company, which ruled that country for the Queen.
Another was the Dutch East India Company, which, at the height of
its power, had forty warships.
A man named Benito Mussolini renamed this system and installed it in
Italy after World War I. He called it “Fascism.” Remember
that Fascism had nothing to do with oppressing Jews. Mussolini came
to power legally in 1922, after the infamous March on Rome, when no
one had ever heard of former Corporal Hitler. Hitler would not become
Chancellor, legally, for another eleven years, not until 1933. Both
Mussolini and Hitler were basically street thugs, but, again, they
took control of their governments legally, within the constitutional
frameworks of their respective countries.
What was and is Fascism? Mussolini is the expert. Would you believe him?
According to Mussolini, Fascism is an amalgamation of the monster
corporations and the government, which gives the former the force
they need to impose their will and gives the latter the power they
crave. Indeed, Mussolini’s system also became known as “the
corporate state.”
In the beginning, there was considerable admiration for Mussolini’s
system in Washington, District of Corporatism. Yes, he was a thug,
and, yes, his followers wore black shirts, but he certainly did “make
the trains run on time.” Indeed, there was even some enthusiasm
in the District for Adolf’s typical German efficiency at the
very beginning, before the discovery of the Holocaust.
There is considerable reluctance among patriots to call our present, perverted
system “Fascism,” because that is what the Communists
traditionally have called it, and a patriot rightly shrinks from parroting
something the Communists say. That reluctance should be dismissed
because the difference is that the Communists want to replace Fascism
with their version of Socialism, which is of course Communism, while
patriots want to replace the present Fascist system with the original
system of Free Enterprise. Patriots want to revive the dormant Constitution.
This is important because no other term defines the present system in the
United States better than Fascism. Under el presidente Jorge
W. Boosh, the federal government has become nothing else but a tool
and weapon of the Big: Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Fuel, Big Physician
and on and on. That is why we are presently in Iraq. Marine Corps
legend Major General Smedley Butler – two Medals of Honor –
wrote about it in War Is a Racket, which you can read on
line.
And the situation he wrote about in 1935 is infinitely worse today, infinitely
more Fascist. Big Pharma runs the Food and Drug Administration, which
is supposed to regulate it. Our Fascist system routinely shuttles
bureaucrats and executives back and forth between them, to such an
extent that it is realistic to consider them two legs on the same
bug. Big Pharma/FDA is presently using government force to outlaw
vitamins, via Codex Alimentarius, coming soon to your local “health
food” store.
Big Food includes companies like Monsanto Chemical, a monster straight
out of science fiction alien horror. With help from the government,
Monsanto is literally trying to monopolize agricultural seeds. If
it succeeds, it will control food. It is presently conducting a reign
of terror against the world’s farmers, many of whom are committing
suicide. The Monsanto monster will not stop until it kills us, so
the only solution is to destroy it. See F. William Engdahl’s
new book, Seeds of Destruction
, the Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation,
published by Global Research.
In a piece by Donald L. Barlett and James B. Steele, in the May,
2008 Vanity Fair, you will learn that Monsanto is pressuring
the Federal Trade Commission to force dairymen to stop saying on their
labels that their milk does not contain a dangerous Monsanto bovine
growth hormone. If successful, Monsanto would succeed in repealing
the First Amendment.
Barlett and Steele also say this: “. . . Monsanto relies on a shadowy
army of private investigators and agents in the American heartland
to strike fear into farm country. They fan out into fields and farm
towns, where they secretly videotape and photograph farmers, store
owners, and co-ops; infiltrate community meetings; and gather information
from informants about farming activities. Farmers say that some Monsanto
agents pretend to be surveyors. Others confront farmers on their land
and try to pressure them to sign papers giving Monsanto access to
their private records. Farmers call them the ‘seed police’
and use words such as ‘Gestapo’ and ‘Mafia’
to describe their tactics.”
Now comes word that rancher Derry Brownfield has been kicked off the network
where he has conducted a daily talk show for thirty five years, because
Derry dared to expose Monsanto’s satanic machinations. Monsanto
used its advertising clout for the purpose. That is why you see nothing
about Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Medicine, etc., in the media.
You already know about Big Banking and Big Oil. Today let’s
look at Big Science. A book that got by me because it has received
even less media coverage than Dr. Ron No Such Candidate Paul, is The
China Study, Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-Term
Health (Dallas, BenBella Books, 2005), by T. Colin Campbell,
Ph.D., who stands at the pinnacle of world scientific research. He
is Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell. He has
authored more than 300 research papers and has received more than
seventy grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding.
Conducted by Dr. Campbell, the twenty-year China Study remains the biggest study
ever conducted of what people eat. Dr. Campbell adds to it a mountain
of enough other scientific studies by other scientists high enough
to daunt Sir Edmund Hillary, the conqueror of Everest.
The enormous body of findings proves that a plant-based diet – a
vegetarian diet that excludes meat (including fish and eggs) and dairy
(including cheese) – not only produces sensible weight loss;
it also arrests and even reverses killer diseases like diabetes, cancer
and heart disease. (Remember, we are talking about a medical treatment,
not about ordinary vegetarianism. I am not arguing for or against
it.) Indeed, he says, it is a better cure for those diseases than
any of the orthodox, government-endorsed treatments presently available.
That is why I had never heard of his book. My point is not whether you
agree or disagree. It isn’t whether or not his ideas work for
you; it is that Dr. Campbell’s findings have been suppressed
in our Fascist system by a corporate monster that includes Big University,
Big Federal Grants and Big Food, because those findings would turn
that system upside down. Imagine what would happen to behemoths like
McDonald’s and the dairy industry were his findings generally
known.
Here are a couple of examples of what happens in our Fascist system when
doctors implement the findings in The China Study. John McDougall,
M.D., reports that he asked one cardiologist to let him show a McDougall
patient the scientific literature on the subject after the cardiologist
recommended surgery. The cardiologist refused, saying the information
would just “confuse” the patient.
Other physicians would send their own wives and children to see Dr. McDougall,
but would never refer a patient to him. It is one thing to be ignorant.
This is quite another. I believe such a physician is committing a
criminal act. He should be publicly humiliated, stripped of his license
to practice and thrown into prison. Because such quacks are literally
killing people to maintain their lucrative rackets, I also would not
be upset were survivors of the deceased to apply tar and feathers
and run them out of town.
Dr. McDougall says these medical monsters were fearful of the blowback
when their patients came to see him. “. . . They’d come
to me with heart disease or high blood pressure or diabetes. I’d
put them on the diet and they’d go back off all their pills
and soon their numbers would be normal. They’d go to their doctor
and say, ‘Why the hell didn’t you tell me about this before?
Why did you let me suffer, spend all this money, almost die, when
all I had to do was eat oatmeal?’ The doctors didn’t want
to hear this.”
See my book, Electronic Medicine: Cure for Cancer?,
for another manifestation of the fact that these quacks are not at
all men of science. A man of science would be on fire to learn what
Dr. McDougall does to produce these results. Instead, he says, the
quacks hurry the recovered patients out of their offices so they will
not have to hear more.
Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D., is a distinguished surgeon at the Cleveland
Clinic. Ess, like McDougall, treats with diet, so, however distinguished
he is, the men who run the hospital won’t take his calls. They
won’t install his program at the Clinic, but they eat meat and
dairy and come to him for treatment. Dr. Ess says as follows:
“I have now treated a number of senior staff with coronary disease at
the Clinic – senior staff physicians. I have also treated a
number of senior staff trustees. One of the trustees knows about the
frustrations that we’ve had trying to get this into the Clinic,
and he says, ‘I think, if the word gets out that Esselstyn has
this treatment that arrests and reverses this disease at the Cleveland
Clinic, and it’s been used by senior staff and he’s treated
senior trustees, but he’s not permitted to treat the common
herd, we could be open for a lawsuit.’”
A lawsuit would be lenient. Get out the horse whips! Again, please understand
that I am not suggesting you stop eating dairy and meat. I am not
a doctor and don’t know whether you should do that. As always,
I am arguing in favor of your right to get the medical treatment you
want, be it vegetarianism or something else. The Nazi medical horror
you will read about in The China Study is an inevitable product
of our Fascist system, including Big Pharma, Big Medicine and Big
Government, including the federal grants that keep researchers in
line.
Someone who opposes Fascism would be working to dismantle this totalitarian
system. Notice that the Socialists – including the Socialists
who run both major political parties – do not, despite their
professed hostility to Fascism, because Fascism is one of several
versions of Socialism and they are Socialists. Remember that Hitler
called his movement Nazism, “National Socialism..
Death to Monsanto!
Alan Stang was one of Mike Wallace’s original writers at Channel 13 in New York, where he wrote some of the scripts that sent Mike to CBS. Stang has been a radio talk show host himself. In Los Angeles, he went head to head nightly with Larry King, and, according to Arbitron, had almost twice as many listeners. He has been a foreign correspondent. He has written hundreds of feature magazine articles in national magazines and some fifteen books, for which he has won many awards, including a citation from the Pennsylvania House of Representatives for journalistic excellence. One of Stang’s exposés stopped a criminal attempt to seize control of New Mexico, where a gang seized a court house, held a judge hostage and killed a deputy. The scheme was close to success before Stang intervened. Another Stang exposé inspired major reforms in federal labor legislation.
His first book, It’s Very Simple: The True Story of Civil Rights, was an instant best-seller. His first novel, The Highest Virtue, set in the Russian Revolution, won smashing reviews and five stars, top rating, from the West Coast Review of Books, which gave five stars in only one per cent of its reviews.
Stang has lectured in every American state and around the world and has guested on many top shows, including CNN’s Cross Fire. Because he and his wife had the most kids in Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic, where they lived at the time, the entire family was chosen to be actors in “Havana,” directed by Sydney Pollack and starring Robert Redford, the most expensive movie ever made (at the time). Alan Stang is the man in the ridiculous Harry Truman shirt with the pasted-down hair. He says they made him do it.
