commentary: vitamin deficiency - response nytimes - News Keeps Getting Worse for Vitamins

vitamin deficiency–who protects us from those who say they are protecting us - this is amazing vitamin scandal story - who do we believe the vitamin pharmaceutical industrial military government media complex of global incompetent companies who keep feeding us their propaganda and their take this and leave the driving to us -

we are shocked when we find out we have ben betrayed by our protectors, government, food and drug administration etc - but then again as Saul Bellow says, we are shock resistant maybe the only thing that can touch us is poetry (art) - we are shocked when we hear things like the food and drug administration allowing hazardous food and things out of China and into our mouths and homes and FDA only recently opened up offices in China - but lest we forget who we are trusting to protect us - the Chinese don’t have a history of oversight like we like to believe we have and yet here in the west our western definition of over-sight often means we the people are blind-sighted and blind-sided - we have seen this idiotcracy in all aspects of government oversight that they are blind deaf and dumb to what they don’t want to hear and have a blind eye too - our present government of we the business first have done another excellent job of wearing the emperor’s new clothes and deceiving us all coming on top of the present economic meltdown - the point is we can’t trust what comes out of the mouths of people who keep telling us they are protecting us and who have agendas and protecting their position at we the peoples imposition and expense - but the real mea culpa belongs to the media for being weak and fearful and saying one thing and not reporting on things we the people need to know but are more afraid of unintended consequences of their own agenda which is not protecting the people as much as we would like to think - the vitamin story is something we wanted to believe in and for decades all the research which was often funded by the corporations themselves to get the desired results has been misleading us down the garden path - as Thomas Jefferson said “he would rather see a strong press rather then a strong government” - the future is watching and wondering too - geo geller
