uhhh......greed?

How many people at this very moment are wondering what the world is coming to? Big number I'd imagine. I'm wondering what the world has come to. How did we get here? How did we come to such a volatile place that one thing can take the whole nation down. The price of gas for instance. What has become of the world? Greed has become of the world, or our world rather...AKA the good ol' U.S.

Think about this. Price of gas goes too high to buy, nobody can get to work...nobody can buy anything......uhhhhh....I'm no economy buff but I'd say that would pretty much be the end of us. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Call me a simpleton and slap me in the chops. Tell my concerns are all in vain. I would love some piece of mind right about now. Greeeed! The bible says that the love of money is the root of all evil. No, money is not the root. It says the "love" of money. The root of "all" evil. Not just a little of it. Not just half of it. All of it.

Yes, this is me blaming greed for the problems of America. Gasoline is an obvious of course. My Dad told me a story about a man on Camp Pendalton that adjusted the carb on his jeep in a way that enabled the vehicle to achieve an astonishing 100 plus miles per gallon. The jeep was taken from the man and he was threatened with disciplinary action should he create another gas hog....sarcasm? This incident took place in the early seventies. Everyone knows we've had the technology for years to get 100 plus miles per gallon. There are a group of money hording pigs out there that are responsible for this mess. Or at least partially.

Let's talk about greed and your food. You know all the preservatives, emulsifiers and hydrogenated oils everyone is crying about? Greed. Let's start with hydrogenated oils, shall we? Nobody can be absolutely sure of it's original intended purpose, but we do know the bulk of what it wound up being used for. If you put this crap in food it doesn't have to be refrigerated.

Can you imagine how much money just one company would save if they didn't have to refrigerate just one product? I'm not just talkin' in a warehouse somewhere either. Refrigeration on the road. Not only that but it's shelf life could outlast you. Especially if you eat it! Did you know that the beginning of the so called obesity problem in America co insides with the introduction of hydrogenated oils into our food supply? Partially hydrogenated oil is worse! Sure they use it to perk things up a bit. Change the melting point in butter. We call that margarine....or to get the texture right in peanut butter and prevent separation.

Let me connect some dots here. Save money on refrigeration. That's it? Nope. Some guy in Pennsylvania isn't satisfied with the money he makes off of his product locally. He wants the entire U.S. to buy what he has. How does he get his stuff to you before it rots? He puts poison in it so that it doesn't go bad. Greed. How much of this crap is in our food? Read the back! Here's something I like to do to scare myself out of another year of life. Read the ingredients of anything you're eating that is packaged. Type them one at a time in the search bar and see what comes up. I caught my second oldest boy doing this one day. He was looking up something called Sodium Nitrite. I may have misspelled that. This stuff is in almost all packaged meat products. Hot dogs, any kind of lunch meat, brats....anywayz...He won't eat it anymore.

Perhaps you think that he over reacted. Look up the MSDS on this stuff and see for yourself. The truth is if this were the only chemical in our food, we might not have it so bad. There are hundreds of thousands of them. EDTA, PGPR, Soy lecithin, dies, artificial colors, artificial sweeteners.....We blame rock and roll and video games for falling test scores, divorce rates and that kid who emptied a semi auto sub sonic into another class room. We're taking in too much of this crap. Our bodies and minds cannot work properly under these circumstances. Depression? Please! Give them some more pills, right? You ever ask your doctor why you feel like that?

Maybe an antibiotic! Like the stuff they pump the cows full of that you eat in your burgers. Woohoo!! I went and done it now didn't I! Did you know that 70 some odd percent of your immune system is a bacteria that grows in your guts? Do you know what an antibiotic does? It kills bacteria!!!! With that bacteria gone you're wide open. There's something else in your gut that the antibiotics don't kill. Fungus. The levels of fungus in your guts are controlled by the bacteria. Without the bacteria the fungus grows out of control and causes all kinds of problems that nobody wants to blame fungus for. Fungus can't survive without sugar. Problem solved right? I just won't eat any sugar.

One estimate puts American sugar consumption at 64 lbs a year per person as an average. Another estimate I read recently was 134 lbs a year per person. Here fungus fungus.....another problem here is that sugar by itself from any source is dangerous. What? Oranges have sugar!? Yes, but oranges also have the proper nutrients that your body needs to break the sugar down.

Those crying FDA? Yes, the FDA will protect us! They didn't stop the buying and selling of asbestos, we did. They sold it to us until we stopped buying it. Oh wait. They still sell the stuff. Why? Greed. What else does the FDA do for you? Feeds you lots and lots of drugs. That's right. Line up fellas and open wide. Two years ago the Pharmaceutical industry made in excess of 426 billion dollars a year. That's a lot of money folks! May cause nausea, vomiting, bleeding of the nose, eyes, liver....severe diarrhea...and in some rare cases, DEATH! Wake up drones!!!! hahahaha!!!

Hey, here's one for all of you fanatics out there. The word Pharmaceutical comes from the Greek word pharmakia. In the Greek, pharmakia means sorcery. Pharmacist comes from the Greek word pharmacon, which means sorcerer. Spooooky isn't it! Here's another thought, since I've obviously went waaaaay too far....In Revelations chapter 18 it says, ".....by thy scorceries were all nations deceived."
I use to work for a pharmaceutical company. In one meeting they proudly announced that they were now selling product in 168 countries around the world. Hmmmmm.....Hey, I'm not sayin' anything.......GREED! Sorry.....shutting up.....GREED!!!!!!

Is there anyone left out there that doesn't believe that pharms are bad for us? Why do we keep on taking them? What about the food? Is there anyone out there that believes that the junk they put in our food isn't responsible for our poor health? Is there anyone out there left sleeping? shhhhh......wake up.

GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED......greed.....grrrrrr......eeeeed....in a nation of designed consumers.

Ok, done venting...

goodnight
