Doctors and the Public are Being Manipulated for Corporate Profits
This Kills Twice as Many People as AIDS – Why are Doctors Ignoring it?
Posted By Dr. Mercola
About $282 million was paid to doctors by drug companies last year. Is this compromising the best interests of their patients?
Dr. Mercola’s Comments:
Many people are still completely unaware of the many ways in which they are being manipulated into taking dangerous and unnecessary drugs.
There’s the $5 billion direct-to-consumer marketing, of course, which is rather obvious. But physicians also play a major role, and the manipulation that takes place on this level is more obscure.
Drug reps often give ‘gifts’ to convince doctors to prescribe the medications that they represent. These drug reps usually have no medical or science education. Instead, they’re armed with some of the most potent brainwashing techniques used throughout the world, which I’ll discuss in a moment.
Perhaps the manipulation technique most difficult to detect is the ‘education’ given by doctors, to doctors.
Here, it’s very easy to forget that the doctor presenting the material is working entirely on the drug company’s behalf, and not as an independent, well-educated, appropriate source of objective information.
And then there’s the insidious Drug Industry sponsored “education” that takes place in medical schools across the US.
For example, out of Harvard’s 8,900 professors and lecturers, 1,600 admit that they or a family member have ties to drug companies that could bias their teaching or research. In 2008 alone the pharmaceutical industry contributed more than $11.5 million to Harvard for “research and continuing education classes.”
All of these tactics (and others) are employed on a massive scale in the name of “education,” but nothing could be further from the truth.
Is Your Doctor Paid to Promote a Drug?
Chances are your doctor has fallen prey to pharmaceutical marketing tactics. Most doctors simply do not have the time to research …..more>>>

John F. Hylan, New York City Mayor, 1922
"The real menace of our republic is this invisible government which like a giant octopus sprawls its slimy length over city, state and nation. Like the octopus of real life, it operates under cover of a self created screen...At the head of this octopus are the Rockefeller Standard Oil interests and a small group of powerful banking houses generally referred to as International Bankers. This little coterie of powerful international bankers virtually run the United States government for their own selfish purposes. They practically control both political parties."
- John F. Hylan, New York City Mayor, 1922Woodrow Wilson, 1913
"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it."
- Woodrow Wilson, 1913Thomas Jefferson
"If the people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny"
Thomas Jefferson (1778)General Douglas MacArthur
“I am concerned for the security of our great nation, not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.”
General Douglas MacArthurThomas Jefferson
A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference.
