This chosen article below speaks for itself …

It take a cunning mind … but a diabolical and psychopathic mind to conspire such a sinister plan as to keep a U.S. people not only dumb down, but deliberately sick and unhealthy …. just to use the money system in play to become the rich and powerful …

And to have gained control over the food industry, pharmaceutical, and medical even the banking system where their ill gotten wealth are stored …

One thing I can say for this group of diabolical and psychopathic minds … they gave humanity a good run for their money …
Now some of the sinister minds are still running around trying to hold their diobical system in place … the smarter ones have already jumped ship ..

The people are waking up … and the oppressor’s system is collapsing … 

It's been a Looooog time coming …. but the change is in process ….

Blessed are the waking generation … ushering in a righteous U.S.

Supercommittee Passing Farm Bill That Subsidizes Highest Bidders

HERE By Friday, November 04, 2011

The Farm Bill supercommittee is rushing through legislation that effects the next five years of most things food-wise in America.

With no public input whatsoever, a congressional supercommittee of four people plans to pass legislation that would gut food stamps, favor industrial-scale commodity farming quenched with GMOs through funding. If passed it will defund transitions to organic farming and funding to help communities start farmers markets.

We spend 2.2 trillion a year on health care — over five times more than the defense budget — and we spend more money per person on our health care than any country in the world. Yet we grow sicker year by year.

Why could this be?

In 1973, the U.S. congress passed a farm subsidy bill. Among other things, it included mass incentives for corn production. One of the major causes of this surplus was a product you might know called high fructose corn syrup. It can be added to soda-pop, barbeque sauce, hotdog buns: literally anything, except whole foods.

Some scientists and medical researchers suggest that the doctor of the future will no longer treat the human frame with drugs, but rather will cure and prevent disease with nutrition.

This is a time of an infamously high deficit and not-so-famous record farm incomes. In 2007 net farm income was $70 billion with 17% coming from the fed; now in 2011 net income is $103.6 billion with 10% from the fed.

According to Politico, federal crop insurance subsidies this year are the highest ever recorded, which means a lot more of the status quo.

If we keep eating the same processed muck churned out by restaurant chains across the country, bought from the same industrial farms that could care less about food quality so long as it passes inspection, our health care costs are going to rise and the problem will continue to compound.

HuffPo reports that ”Leaders of the two panels are planning to submit their plan to cut up to $23 billion from agriculture funding to the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction, the so-called Super Committee, next week. Their recommendations will likely cut billions of dollars from agricultural conservation programs, according to published reports on the discussions.”

“One quarter of what you eat keeps you alive, the other three quarters keeps your doctor alive.” – an Egyptian proverb.
