4/14/2016 - It's no secret that more people are becoming health-conscious citizens, concerned about everything from the toxic ingredients in their food supply, to questioning the drugs that Big Pharma continually pushes.

How Americans subsidize big corporations that are then allowed to keep profits offshore and avoid paying taxes

9/11/2015 4:34:56 PM - Conservatives in Congress have been working to kill off the Ex-Im (Export-Import) Bank because they say it is little more than an entity that doles out corporate welfare.

How Planned Parenthood and the vaccine industry sacrifice the lives of children on the altar of medical profits and eugenics

8/7/2015 - The barbarous legacy that Planned Parenthood will surely leave behind in the wake of its recent unveiling as a chop-shop for aborted baby profiteering has a match in the vaccine industry, which likewise profits from sacrificing children on the altar of medical quackery founded in eugenics.

JPMorgan profits from the food stamp scam while Americans are fed disease-promoting junk food

2/6/2015 - When the food stamp program was first created, the idea was to help struggling Americans stay afloat while they sought employment or other means of subsistence.

6/9/2012 4:07:58 AM - So, in New York, Mayor Bloomberg had a plan to limit the size of sugary drinks (soda) to curtail the obesity epidemic.

1/25/2012 2:33:56 AM - When times get tough, many people cope by flocking to their favorite "comfort" foods that make them feel good, and that are perceived as being affordable.

October is Breast Cancer Propaganda Month: Pinkwashing, Breast Cancer Action and Vitamin D

10/11/2007 - You've already seen the headlines touting October as breast cancer awareness month.

Pharmaceutical fraud: How Big Pharma's marketing and profits come before consumer safety and wellness

9/7/2006 - If you have a long, drawn-out, incurable but treatable disease, it's unfortunate for you but great for pharmaceutical companies.

Health roundup: Organ harvesting, kidney profits and Haitian headhunters (satire)

3/24/2006 - Further demonstrating that U.S. doctors are, indeed, mad, two doctors are now publicly promoting the idea that it should be legal for people to sell their own kidneys (and other organs) to patients needing transplants. Such a move would, of course, transform the poorest members of society into easily...

8/6/2004 - The FDA has now approved Eli Lilly's new drug, Cymbalta, for treatment of depression.

Importation of prescription drugs from Canada rises despite FDA's best efforts to protect Big Pharma's profits in the U.S.

7/25/2004 - The FDA is losing its battle waged against the pocketbooks of American consumers: people are importing more prescription drugs than ever, and they're getting them from Canada, Mexico and even the U.K. This concerns the FDA, of course, which has gone all out to protect the profits of Big Pharma by attempting...

The science says ban soft drinks in schools, but the FDA support profits, not health

1/5/2004 2:25:18 PM - Kudos to doctors for pushing to ban soft drinks and fruit drinks in schools. It's just one way to combat rising childhood obesity, and it will surely help these children maintain healthy body weights as adults (it's much harder to lose weight as an adult if you were obese as a child). This is...

Most U.S. investors prefer profits, even when companies harm people

11/6/2003 2:20:04 PM - It always amazes me how the public will invest in anything that makes money, whether or not the profits come from ethical business conduct.
