www.mediaed.org Big Bucks, Big Pharma pulls back the curtain on the multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry to expose the insidious ways that illness is used, manipulated, and in some instances created, for capital gain.

    Scientology abuses its members working them 70-130 hrs a wk for slave wages of 40 cents an hr -10 cents an hr if they’re so unlucky to need “rehabilitation” in one of its gulags or concentration camps.

    Children are abused as child slave labor & young women are either coaxed or coerced into getting abortions. It breaks up families & harasses its critics.

    It is a fascist totalitarian organization operating above the law as nothing is as important as Clearing the Planet (taking over the world).

    Scientology claims their cult is compatible with Christianity. This statement is in conflict with the words of their own founder, L. Ron Hubbard (LRH).
    “The whole Christian movement is based on the victim … They won by appealing to victims. We can win by converting victims.”
    - Hubbard Communications Office (HCO) bulletin of 18 July 1959 (under “Historical Note”)

    OT Levels Summary

    Section III OT = OT3 = Incident II. 75 million years ago Xenu commits mass extermination, drops bodies in volcanoes on earth, souls are subjected to 36 days of hypnotic implants which then attach to humans. OT3 is all about auditing out these body thetans.
    OT4 = more body thetans and drugs
    OT5 = even more body thetans and NOTs
    OT6 = how to really audit body thetans out this time
    OT7 = apply what you learned in OT6
    OT8 = a review of above. Not successful? Start all over again!

    They’re marketing their drugs to health professionals because the industry is so highly regulated, that there are very few messages that are allowed to be relayed directly onto the consumer.

    Who would you rather the drug companies market to? The consumer (like you) who knows next to nothing about medicine, or the professional, who is paid to stay informed about the changing landscape of health care?

    True, yet some drugs come with greater risks than others, not to mention the limited scope of research done on these newer drugs before being released into the mass market and advertised heavily without the knowledge of how these drugs affect people in the long term. Why take such risks? Its all about money to them, not peoples wellbeing.

    The rats are jumping ship.

    CHEMRISK - a research company hired by the Corn Refiners has recently taken down it’s YouTube page.

    The removal was in response to negative public perception resulting from the high-fructose corn syrup ad campaign. Apparently it has become a liability to defend the sweetener.

    See the last remaining ChemRisk video at CornRefinersAssoc on YouTube.
