It's Time - & Past - For Capitalism To Go

Yesterday I included a footnote (about receiving some books in the mail) in my blog; to wit:

"1 by USPS; a new wrinkle to me, newly arrived back in my home country as I am.  I see that UPS is being given a run for its money, as it were.  Good on the US Postal Service for coming up with an innovation in their 'service', in their attempts to compete in the modern world.  There's even a better way of being; but that's for another time."

I would like, now, to elaborate on that comment a bit.  Especially because of having come across today a missing piece to a puzzle that I have been trying to put together for some years.  A piece, that now causes my anger at the western world's way of doing things to be such that I can hardly wait for its demise - to get out of the way, so that that 'better world' can come about.

Some background.

A number of years ago - in point of fact, in 1994 - I moved, after living a larger number of years in Scotland (at a spiritual community; another story), to Australia, for a new chapter in my life (a committed relationship, and some degree, at least, of retirement; turning 60 that year).  Not too long after arriving Down Under I was waiting for my partner to complete her appointment with her chiropractor, when I happened to notice a book in the waiting area.  The title caught my eye: 'Vaccines, Social Violence, And Criminality'.  The subtitle added to my curiosity: 'The Medical Assault On The American Brain'.  Whoa, I thought.  Here's some interesting reading.  It was, and I did; for some years, going deeper down the rabbit hole of western medicine, in particular in relation to the subject area of autism.1

That's one story.  Another story, in the same genre, had to do with MS - Multiple Sclerosis.  I forget how that particular wrinkle in the fabric of life in the western world, and its approach to medicine, caught my eye as well: I think it had to do with one of my community- and house-mates - back in the spiritual community where I returned in late 2001 - suffering, for some years, with that affliction, and my researching my material - by then having grown to some size - on the side effects of vaccines for some answers for her.  It was obvious by then - to me, and to many people who were reading and contributing to the literature on the subject - that vaccines had done, if some good, as well a lot of damage, in their professionally and governmentally unacknowledged side effects.  'Collateral damage' to the medical profession, and its apologists (and pharmaceutical-industry trolls); central damage, to many of us in the public arena, as doctors and parents and interested laypersons, like me.

MS was one of those side effects, with vaccines having been proven to cause brain damage of various kinds.2  I won't go further down that pathway, here; I want to look at another one, regarding our modern world, and our regulatory bodies.  I mean our governmental regulatory bodies  I mean our supposed governmental regulatory bodies.

In my researching the MS 'matter', I came across an interesting 'footnote' to its relationship to low vitamin D levels.  (It is known and commonly accepted, even by the allopathic medical profession, that incidences of MS are higher in countries/climes the further away from the equator.)  Vitamin D, amongst its other valuable properties, is an anti-fungal.  And it turns out that fungi and molds can attack the myelin sheathing protecting the cranial nerve systems (with something called mycoplasmas).  So that's another reason why vitamin D is so valuable in the treatment, and prevention, of MS.  But there is something else going on here; that any competence scientist could have uncovered, with a little incentive.  Like, say: our health.

Another aspect of such colder climes is the smoking of fish.  i knew that, from my reading about colder climes and their relationship to higher incidences of MS; and wondered if that could lead to molds and fungi, and thus be a part of the MS picture.  But my 'wondering' about it was as far as I got, before I moved back to the States, where I am now.  (In a very warm climate, in Southern California.)  And then, today I received an email from a friend from back in northern Scotland.

And the last piece fell in place.

He emailed me a link to the work of a Dr. Woodrow C. Monte, on the deleterious role of aspartame in so many egregious mental-physical insults in our modern diet and environment.  we're talking the likes of Alzheimer's, and birth defects, and various cancers, and so on and on, including MS.  Aspartame contains a considerable amount of a form of alcohol called methanol.  Methanol, besides being a poison in its own right, converts into another serious poison: formaldehyde.  But let's just stay with methanol for a minute.

Another name for methanol is wood alcohol.

Wood alcohol can be created by the burning of wood.  

As in smoking fish.

Further: methanol is not only a poison.  It is a teratogen.  Is a birth-defect-creating substance.

Like neural tube defects.

Which, it turns out, there has been an increase of, since 1981.

When aspartame was first put into carbonated drinks, as a sugar substitute.

And its birth-defect-causing effects subsequently covered up, both by a) the federal government's not recording such defects in abortions, and b) the CDC's urgent warning put out, in around 1992, for pregnant females, or those expecting to be pregnant, to add folic acid to their diets (and the government mandating it to be added to flour).

Why?

Folic acid helps metabolize formaldehyde.

But why add folic acid?  It is dangerous in its own right (it masks pernicious anemia, e.g.).  Why not get to the bottom of things, and find out what is causing formaldehyde to be present in the western diet - and to such an alarming extent, that the 'folic acid' measure had to be added to the public health picture in the first place??

Ah.

Got it.

The political power of the likes of Donald Rumsfeld, honcho at the time of G.D. Searle, creators of aspartame, who are making a killing on their product.

Literally.


Go to While Science Sleeps.com.  Read the book (of the same name; subtitled 'A Sweetener Kills').  And get angry.

Very angry.

And do something about it.

More than a government that just causes there to be put on alcoholic beverages the warning: 'According to the Surgeon General, women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects.'

Oh.

Gee.

Thanks.

Not.


But, as I indicated at the beginning of this gentle, deep-breath rant, the situation call for something deeper, more substantial than just that; just, say, writing to one's congressperson.  And getting bromides in reply.3  No.  It is a more systemic 'problem' than that.

It is built in to the capitalist system, and mentality.

Where 'the bottom line' is all that matters.

And even if there are some 'good Joes' in that world, of capitalist commerce, the system is still present.  and unaccountable, so often.  Especially when such creatures get their claws (and clauses) into the government agencies that are supposed to regulate them, and become, in effect, their own regulators.

As we have, and in spades, in the U.S. today.

No.  That's not enough of an answer.  Of a response, to such criminality.

It is time - and very clearly now - to make a fundamental change in how we live on planet Earth.

Before one more child is submitted to the child-damaging and -killing production line of the likes of Coca-Cola, and its partners in such a heinous crime as this one.

--

P.S.  Dr. Monte was trying to be on top of this matter back at the beginning, when he discovered, with his animal studies and then a human case, a relationship between aspartame and birth defects.  But the information he was given by the federal government didn't show such a link, according to their reckoning.

But then they would say that, wouldn't they.

As corrupt as they had become.  (Read the story.  And weep.  And then - as I say - get angry.)


P.P.S.  Aspartame may not appear on the label under its commercial name.  Look for the number 951.

And be cautious about any canned vegetables.  Methanol is produced by the process.  Frozen such foods is okay.  It's the heat that helps trigger the process.

As in cans of carbonated soft drinks sitting out in the sun, in the hot climes of, e.g., Iraq; and poisoning our troops.  As part of the mysterious Gulf War Syndrome poisoning that went on...

...the rot goes on, and on, and on......

footnotes:


1 The book was by Harris. L. Coulter, Ph.D.  He also wrote, 5 years previously (in 1985), with Barbara Loe Fisher, the book 'DPT: A Shot In the Dark,' which was one of the first 'alerts' to the public about the dangers of vaccines, in that case, the DPT shot.*  
     And little has changed in all this time.  To the point, now, where the public has to worry that the authorities are trying, not only to use anti-fertility agents on them via vaccines, but to kill them via the same vector.  An appalling, atrocious, outrageous story.  Check it out.  One good source: Jane Burgermeister (birdflu666.wordpress.com).

* And more specifically in it, the pertussis component.  The vaccinal form of which is, or at least was, the preferred adjuvant in researching allergic encephalomyelitis in animal studies.  Imagine that.  I repeat: imagine that.



2 Example: Vaccines can - admittedly; even by the complex itself.  That's the medical-pharmaceutical-government complex - cause something labeled ADEM: Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis.  If they can cause it, they are causing it.*  One possible avenue: All live virus vaccines - like the MMR - contain something called glutamic acid (it acts as a stabilizer).  Glutamic acid - also to be considered effectively as glutamate; which (in our modern diets, especially w/MSG so prevalent) is another link to vaccinal damage - has the property of lowering levels of something called glutathione, which is the body's chelator of dangerous substances like heavy metals.  We're talking things like aluminum, and mercury.  If a live-virus vaccine is given at the same time as a vaccine containing either of those toxins (called excitotoxins), it would tend to thwart the ability of the body to handle those substances.
     And another, more direct effect of the likes of the MMR shot: the measles-virus component of the vaccine is cultured on chick embryo cells.  The latter can be contaminated with a substance called MBP - for myelin basic protein; a substance that protects the cranial nerve pathways (acting like insulation).  MBP is MBP: our bodies have it, too, protecting our cranial nerve systems.  The body reacts/mounts a reaction to the vaccine, including its ingredients, and thus can mount an autoimmune reaction to its own MBP.
     This is not just theoretical: studies have found antibodies to MBP associated with the vaccine-strain measles virus in children diagnosed with ASD - i.e., autism spectrum disorder.                  

* And a whole range of conditions falling generally under the rubric of subclinical encephalitis; ADD & ADHD & LD & OCD & the autism spectrum, PDD-NOS & so forth & so bloody ON.
     Heads will roll.  Line up, and await your turn; or repent, and come clean.



3 And there's another, similar subject: the addition of bromine/brominated vegetable oil (BVO) to our diets; which is also in soft drinks (it is added to disperse citric acid, which is in turn added to impart a citrus flavor to the drinks).  Bromine has its own set of deleterious properties; including causing obesity, and displacing iodine.  Read 'Iodine: The Perfect Panacea' in the April-May edition of NEXUS Magazine, by Elaine Hollingsworth; the article taken from her book 'Take Control of Your Health and Escape the Sickness Industry'.
