Slowing Down the Pharmaceutical Plague - The Model Group
CategoriesA plague of extreme proportion is the result of the misuse and over-use of the products of pharmacy, a word derived from the Greek pharmakon, translated as magic charm, poison, drug.
Think of antibiotics actually creating virulent microbial species that are just about impossible to kill off, think about the so-called cholesterol lowering drugs that are now turning out to have all manner of side effects, from excruciating muscle pains to kidney failure as well as loss of memory and cognitive effects, think of psychiatric drugs which - rather than balancing the faults of character listed as "illness" - further unbalance a person to the point of violence and suicide.

Today, the pharmaceutical plague is probably worse than any one of the hyped up epidemics such as Aids, the Bird Flu, or any other supposedly virus-based illnesses that are being profitably exploited by a successful industry selling us "vaccines". Pharma not only empties our pockets, it actually makes us sick.Jon Rappoport has an idea how to slow down this pharmaceutical plague. It won't be easy and it will require some no-nonsense direct involvement. But there is a chance it can be done. Here is what he says:
A PLAN TO SLOW DOWN THE PHARMACEUTICAL PLAGUESPREADING SEEDS
April 10, 2008. As many of you know, children have been targeted by drug companies as a vast market for pharmaceutical sales. In particular, the mental health crowd sees this population as extremely fertile.For their ongoing campaign to succeed, estimates have to be floated to the press and public. For example, we are told that roughly 3.4 million American children are suffering from clinical depression --- and then this is corrected by claiming that up to a million of these 3.4 are actually victims of bipolar disorder (manic depression).
Such estimates open the door for prescribed drugs. Antidepressants, lithium, anti-psychotics, and so on...

All these compounds have very serious adverse effects, particularly when combined by prescription-happy doctors who pretend they know what they're doing.
I should also mention that several million kids are currently taking Ritalin and other drugs for ADHD.
We are witnessing a pharmaceutical plague, which is disabling generation after generation of children.
The question is, what can be done?
I have a plan. I'm going to sketch it out, and I hope that some of my readers, who have told me they want to take action, will pick up the ball and run with it.
I call it the MODEL GROUP.
Parents in a community find anywhere between ten and 20 other parents who want to make an impact. They give their group a name, such as PARENTS FOR DRUG SAFETY, and they plan a symposium or a town hall meeting in their town or neighborhood.
They contact medical professionals (of which there are a growing number) who are concerned that kids are being wrongly diagnosed with so-called mental disorders and prescribed dangerous drugs.
They give their local school a chance to host this event, but in any case the event will be held, and local residents will be invited. The press will be contacted.
The event is recorded. Videotaped.
An event. Press coverage. Concerned parents.
It can be pulled off. More than that, this group can become a model for other parents around the country: how do you organize; how do you get people to attend; how do you get professionals to offer solid information; how do you get the press to cover it...
A model means you become a center for teaching others how to hold these events. Word spreads. More press get involved. Ideally, it eventually becomes a national movement.
The seesaw swings in your favor.
At first, all it takes is one small group in one community.
I offer my own services to the first group. I'll help to ID professionals who might show up and talk, and I'll give advice on how to handle the press and position your group so that it gains the authentic ring of power and importance it deserves.
BUT you have to organize the core group first. I'm not interested in chit-chat about the problem or sharing horror stories or commiserating. I'm not interested in finding out who is already working hard on this problem. I'm not interested in learning how tough it is out there. At this point, I'm interested in your results.
I suggest you go to PBS.org and get a DVD copy of the recent Frontline report, THE MEDICATED CHILD. It's not perfect, but it's a starting point. It's professionally produced, and medical authorities weigh in.
To make this whole operation work, you have to be smart and committed. You have to be willing to go all-out. You have to exhibit the kind of stability that gets actual results. You have to be beyond complaining.
