What is the FDA really doing today? It is doing three things:
First, it is providing a means whereby key individuals on its payroll are able to obtain power and wealth through granting special favors to
politically influential groups that are subject to its regulations. This activity is similar to the "protection racket" of organized crime; for a
price, one can induce FDA administrators to provide "protection" from the FDA itself.
Secondly, as a result of this political favoritism, the FDA has become a primary factor in that formula whereby cartel-oriented companies in the
food-and-drug industry are able to use the police powers of the government to harass or destroy their competitors.
And thirdly, the FDA occasionally does some genuine public good if that does not interfere with serving the vested interest of its first two
activities

The FDA...just another organization that is in bed with Big Pharma and big money like the House of Rockeller and their kind. Getting FDA approval is
a joke. Take Aspartame.....denied over and over again by the FDA until Reagan gets into office. He fires the head of the FDA and puts someone owned
by the House of Rockefeller in his place and BOOM..magically, a known poison gets approval and the diet beverage and other diet product industries
zoom into billions upon billions of dollars. Reagan must have made a fortune on that one.
The president runs this country?
No, big money owns and operates this country!
Here's a good conflict of interest:
The American Medical Association and the Rockefeller and Carnegie interests "climbed into bed" together early in the twentieth century.
The relationship between the AMA Journal (the money-maker for the AMA) and the Pharmaceutical Manufacturer’s Association is obvious in the millions
of dollars of advertising revenue collected by the Journal. In addition, the AMA has put millions of the organization’s retirement fund into drug
companies. "…the success of the AMA and those who direct it depends on the prosperity and good will of the pharmaceutical industry"
The AMA. Another national organization owned by Big Pharma. Much of the organization's retirement money is in drug companies? How is this allowed?
The Journal of the AMA is considered an unbiased source for information?
