And yet, in our food supply, we take chlorine atoms and we attach them to molecules that used to be sugar, and we call that a safe sweetener.
Having used the word "stupid" throughout this editorial, I use it deliberately. I don't mean it in the way that a teenager might say, "My stupid little brother flipped me off." I mean it in a more precise way, in the way defined by Dictionary.com:
Stupid:
1. Slow to learn or understand; obtuse.
2. Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes.
3. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care; foolish or careless: a stupid mistake.
4. Dazed, stunned, or stupefied.
Can you think of a better word to describe the people around here?
As Einstein once said, "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former."

Oh, oh, me too, me too! I would like some anal leakage as well, except this time I want some "diarrhea" or some of the "severe digestive problems" they advertise as possible side effects with those "wonderful" pills advertised on TV. Could I please, please. "Severe digestive problems" are so much better than the "heartburn" that I need to get rid of.
And could I have some more of that Clorox tap water! I love the strong smell of Chlorine when I turn on the sink! MMMM-MMMM tasty!
Man, those guys are good on the TV drug commercials. They spit out a list of side effects without even flinching. Skill, it takes skill to do that.
I think I'm going to put Petrol in soft gels and advertise it as a sedative. "Now you might notice a burning sensation.... These side effects are normal. If you should start to bleed uncontrollably, see your doctor quick!"
I swear, drug companies must think the world is full of fools!

When we talk about mercury fillings, you have to keep in mind that mercury is simply one of the most toxic substances you can put into the human body, aside from radioactive substances. Right now, today, dentists all across the country and around the world are taking this highly toxic metal and literally putting it into the teeth of human beings.
Flouride-They want every person in the community to actually drink this substance.
Our population is being poisoned with artificial chemical sweeteners.
And yet we have entire groups, food lobbies and public apologizers who run around saying that these ingredients are perfectly good for you. There's nothing wrong with drinking formaldehyde and formic acid. You'll be fine! Drink more!
And yet, in our food supply, we take chlorine atoms and we attach them to molecules that used to be sugar, and we call that a safe sweetener.
The next terrible poison on the list is hydrogenated oils.
That's why the daily consumption of processed meats has now been clinically shown to produce a 6,700% increase in the risk of pancreatic cancer!
When you ingest sodium nitrite, it mixes with the digestive juices of your stomach and creates a class of chemical compounds called nitrosamines.
Let's look at the personal care products industry, because practically every brand name shampoo, cologne, perfume, deodorant, antiperspirant or other personal care product on the market is made with toxic fragrance chemicals.
People are poisoning their minds with antidepressant drugs that promote violent behavior and suicides. They're poisoning their cardiovascular system with beta-blockers and other drugs. And of course they're poisoning their livers.
Chemotherapy-How toxic is this stuff? Well, gee, think about it, your hair falls out, you get sick and you vomit -- are these signs that maybe this stuff doesn't belong in your body?
Let's see: #1 in obesity, #1 in diabetes, #1 in cancer, #1 mental disorders, and we have the HIGHEST health care costs in the world, too.

You mention millions of people helped by these antidepressant drugs. Where are these millions of people?

And HOW many countries do you think are like that?
And I live in a USA city and I see rats everywhere. You ever been to NYC?
And we don't need the plague, our own medical services kill enough every year to count as an epidemic. Not too mention auto accidents, murders (of which the US has one of the highest rates in the world), not too mention our passion for invading other countries and causing "colateral damage".
Here's a reality check, most of the World is just as advance if not more than the good 'ole USA.
List of World Life Expectancy...

As you can see the USA is not the highest. Japan is.
Maybe you should get out more....
