A Little Health Freedom Math
 |
| May 20, 2007 Math Problem Number 1: T___ or F___ 7 + 0 = Food Fascism? Answer: True. Last week Government regulators used Agribiz favoritism to make a mockery of any democratic process by allowing a mere 7 days for public comment on standards intended to degrade the meaning of "organic" without notice to consumers on food labels. By now this assault on health and health freedom should sound dreadfully familiar. Background: Thinking to sneak changes to significantly lower organic ingredients by us, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) tried to give Agribiz (and "Agribrew") coveted prizes: permission to use low priced, non organic ingredients in high priced, organic foods. Industry, of course, had months and months to lobby and cajole their all-too-willing regulator-puppets into diluting organic standards yet again. USDA published the resultant proposed changes, AMS-TM-07-0062, on May 18, 2007 and then offered the public a scant 7 (rather than the usual 30-90) days to have their say.
The Natural Solutions Foundation caught the USDA in the act, alerted our supporters and has formally requested an extension of the Public Comment period from the USDA (https://secure.democracyinaction.org/dia/hq/editValues.jsp?table=issue&key=98&message=Successfully+updated+Issue+information). We can not be sure that we will get the extension we requested. That leaves us just 2 days to get our comments in on this critical issue.
Math Problem Number 2:
T__ or F__
Answer: True. During the long, frigid and, for many, deadly Christmas Campaign of 1776-7, George Washington and his cold and hungry men endured the privations of winter without adequate fuel, boots, gloves, blankets or shelter. Historians tell us that the Continental Army lacked money to provision the troops and nearly lost the war because of it. The British were well supplied and well armed. They had firewood aplenty and all the food they needed. The parallel is clear. The health freedom army needs provisions. We need researchers, lawyers, airplane tickets (which are no cheaper for activists than for any one else), hotel rooms, administrative staff, communications specialists, office machinery and supplies, telephones, computers, etc.
To date, General Stubblebine, our lawyers and I have not been paid a penny for the work that we do. In fact, we have, as you may know, closed our practice of drug-free medicine and poured our life savings into this work for the last 3 years. And we have accomplished a tremendous amount. But this is a serious battle and we are up against seriously provisioned opposing troops. The health freedom struggle is a winnable one. Let us not forget, however, that the other side has "more money", as they say in the North Eastern part of Scotland where I did my Medical School elective, "than God".
The Health Freedom Movement does not need that much money. But we do need enough to fight the battle at the level of acceleration and momentum which it has reached and to keep on fighting. We are in for the long haul and we need the resources to stay in. Both Codex and health freedom battles are heating up so there are more issues to cover and more responses to generate, more irons in the fire and more kettles boiling. Obviously, the health freedom battle cannot be fought without resources so I would like to make a proposition to you.
