jd, my children won't be getting flu anything until this is resolved. I'll take my chances before I'll let anyone use my children as guinea pigs. I live in Maryland and they've made alot mandatory that I dont' agree with. Not all of it vaccines...

A Harbinger of things to come...

The FDA has been bought part and parcel by Big Pharma and has been anti-alternative health for decades. Their approval of questionable drugs (while wrapping better, alternative solutions in layers of red tape) and allowance for pharmaceutical companies to market to our children only serve to illustrate which master they serve. Our government--at least those really in power--want the American people to be mindless zombies unable to stop their machinations of political intrigue and they are making Big Pharma wealthy to do so. Cradle to Grave, they say, is how the government wants to "take care" of us. I would like everybody to keep this story in mind next time you hear or read about the government making some drug or vaccine mandatory for our children, as they've done in Texas and Maryland already.
