Article Source: Gulf human rights hero Thomas B. Manton falsely imprisoned, murderedNearly half of all Americans now use prescription drugs on a regular basis according to a CDC report that was just released (1). Nearly a third of Americans use two or more drugs, and more than one in ten use five or more prescription drugs regularly.
The report also revealed that one in five children are being regularly given prescription drugs, and nine out of ten seniors are on drugs.
No one gets healthier from taking prescription drugs. They don't cure anyone and they don't prevent disease. They only maintain patients in a kind of "pre-death stasis" where they're alive just enough to keep buying more medication. Drug companies don't want you dead because that would cut off their profits. But they don't want you healthy, either, because then they wouldn't have you as a customer. So their drugs are actually designed to keep you in a state of ongoing disease without curing your condition but also without killing you outright.
Speaks for itself.

Some of these drugs have a profound toxicity and the drug companies don't even know the exact molecular level bio-chemical processes and interactions that are taking place. Many of these drugs attack the liver. It is so very foolish to hack around with so complex an organ. As far as anti-depressants/psychotics, these drugs are foisted onto the general market like popcorn at the movies, and young people are the drug companies latest profit fodder. Individuals and parents must ponder the necessity of each and every drug that is being prescribed for them and their children. If the claims made for some of these drugs sound too good to be true...........

It created a starbucks atmosphere whereby the public is driven toward the purchase of drugs which they don't have a need for and the medications haven't been properly tested.
