The U.S. is the world's largest manufacturer and exporter of disease. We
manufacture the foods, the drinks, and even the government policies that
keep people fat, diseased, and ridden with cancer and diabetes all
around the globe. It's good business, of course, especially when your
home country can sell people both the products that cause disease (soft
drinks, junk foods, and the like)
and the prescription drugs used
to treat symptoms caused by those foods (diabetes, heart disease,
cancer, depression and more). In fact, you might call it a brilliant
racket of sorts. Except there's one small problem: this racket is
causing the undue suffering and deaths of tens of millions of people
around the world each year.
World governments and the World Health
Organization (WHO) have grown weary of subjecting their populations to
the U.S. diet, and they're trying to do something about it: they want to
teach their populations to reduce their consumption of sugar and junk
foods. Sounds reasonable, right?
But of course not: the U.S. insists
that there's absolutely no link between diet and health -- a position so
absurd that it could only come from Washington. Sugars don't make people
fat, they claim, people make people fat. And thus, the United States
continues to embarrass itself in the global political forum by
insidiously and obviously defending a home-grown industry (the
ultra-rich Big Sugar families) for no purpose other than to protect the
profits of big wigs who manufacture a product (refined white sugar) that
serious harms people who regularly eat it.
This is evil in action,
folks. You're watching it happen right before your eyes. When the
profits of one small group are given higher priority than the health of
a billion people, that's pure evil. You can thank President Bush for
this one: Big Sugar apparently has the President in their right pocket.
