Drug cartels are amateurs:
Here's the real
thing.

Mexican
cartels? Colombian cartels? Afghan poppy lords?
Middlemen? Street dealers? Are you kidding?
They're small fry. Check out the pros.
Medical
News Today, June 22, 2013, "Most Americans on
Prescriptions." "7 out of every 10
Americans are on prescription drugs, and more than
half of the country are on at least two, according
to an analysis conducted by Mayo Clinic and
Olmsted Medical Center researchers."
That's
210 million men, women, and children---hooked.
Something the Sinaloa Cartel can only dream
of.
Most
commonly ingested medical drugs? In order:
antibiotics, antidepressants, and opioids. Those
last two indicate Americans are trying to change
their state of mind and kill pain via the Man in
the White Coat; the street dealer is way, way
behind.
Here's
an interesting quote from the Medical News piece:
"...nearly one quarter of women between 50 and 64
take antidepressants..."
The
street drug cartels, of course, are working at a
disadvantage. The White Coat dealers are backed up
by government, insurance companies, medical
boards, medical journals, Wall Street, banks,
pharmaceutical companies, media, medical schools,
hospitals, and big foundations. That's the
competition. What are the street drug cartels
going to do? Put out a hit on all these people?
Hell, I'm sure some of the Mexican and Colombian
drug chiefs have their own doctors and are taking
Zoloft and Paxil themselves.
Previously,
in another piece, Medical News Today reported
that, in 2011, there was a modest uptick in the
number of prescriptions written in the US.
The
increase brought the total to: 4.02
billion.
Yes,
in 2011, doctors wrote 4.02 billion
prescriptions for drugs in
America.
That's an average of roughly 13
prescriptions for each man, woman, and
child.
That's
about one new prescription every month for every
American.
The
Medical News Today article concluded, "...the
industry should be heartened by the growth of the
number of prescriptions and spending." Yes, I'm
sure the drug industry was popping champagne
corks.
We're
talking about prescriptions here. We're not
talking about the number of pills Americans took.
We're also not counting over-the-counter
drugs.
Pharmacopoeia,
a 2011 exhibition at the British Museum, estimated
that "the average number of pills a person takes
in his or her own lifetime in the UK is 14,000."
That's as a result of prescriptions. Including
over-the-counter drugs, the 14,000 number would
swell to 40,000 pills taken in a
lifetime.
What
are the effects of all these drugs?
We
are looking at a supreme Trojan Horse that is
rotting out America and other industrialized
countries from the inside. Wars, no wars, economic
deprivation, economic prosperity, the drugs
continue to do their work, debilitating and
ruining and terminating lives.
Many
sources can be cited to confirm this
assessment.
On
January 8th, 2001, the LA Times published an
article by Linda Marsa: "When Good [sic] Drugs Do Harm." Marsa
quoted researcher Dr. David Bates, who indicated
that, in the US, there are 36 million serious
adverse reactions to medical drugs per
year.
On
July 26, 2000, the Journal of the American Medical
Association published the most stunning mainstream
estimate of medical-drug damage in history: "Is US
health really the best in the world?" The author
was Dr. Barbara Starfield, a respected
public-health researcher at the Johns Hopkins
School of Public Health.
Starfield
concluded that medical drugs were killing
Americans at the rate of 106,000 per year. That's
over a million deaths per decade.
(By
contrast, The Wall St. Journal reports 3,094
deaths from heroin overdose in 2010.)
Starfield gives us a
conservative sketch of the Trojan Horse that has
been placed in the center of the industrialized
world.
The destruction of societies by medical
drugs goes far beyond what some people call
"over-prescribing." This isn't just a tilt in the
wrong direction. It isn't simply errors of
judgment compounded by the number of doctors
dispensing medicines.
Those
are all polite terms suggesting the situation can
be corrected through a show of good will and
better judgment. That will never happen. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Countries
of the world are literally being assaulted by
pharmaceutical companies and their foot-soldier
doctors. It's chemical warfare.
To
even begin to see light at the end of the tunnel,
hundreds of millions of people must add themselves
to the rolls of those who already are pursuing
better health through natural means.
Not even the worst dictators and
mass murderers in history dreamed of a day when
the citizenry would line up and demand to ingest
more and more life-destroying
chemicals.
