    This thread we will discuss how the US Government sold its people into corporate slavery with its policies, and whether there is any future for the high educated and specialist people in the USA who are caught in an endless cycle of corporate exploitation and abuse.

    I just watched a movie called Burzynski on Netflix. It's also free on youtube.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zBBfN5mQa8

    The movie documents quite well how a physician in Texas came up with a way to treat cancer that was proven to be far more effective than than toxic chemo and dangerous radiation. The FDA repeatedly persecuted this man, attempting to protect the big money for the business as usual treatments of chemo and radiation. It's a true travesty. Typically, his treatment was 300% more effective and with far fewer side effects. But as expected, government protected the big money and didn't give a flying (*)(*)(*)(*) about treating sick people. If you have ever seen the movie or do end up watching it, I suspect we would find a (*)(*)(*)(*) load of areas where we agree the government was flat out EVIL and has caused the deaths of god knows how many people. I'm still shaking my head in disgust- trying to put a doctor in prison for curing cancer- yes, CURING cancer, and we're talking many cases where the patients in question were sent home to die by establishment physicians.

    I know this is a tad off your topic, but hey it's close enough for government work. ;)

    I still don't know if i really believe it, but i know I have serious questions, that I know demand answers about Burzynski's work, and what has been done to suppress it.

    That movie really changed my views on things, it broke me out of my box of assumptions!

    More answers and knowledge is always a good thing. After watching what the FDA did to this guy, it's extremely difficult for one to NOT want more answers, especially from the US government. There were some good, what I would call "initial statistics" on Burzynski's work. It's just a shame government played with the protocol in what appears to be an all-out effort to discredit him. Of course, that's aside from them trying to put him in prison.

    Today, they are one in the same. There is no difference any more. All you can do is try not to vote for the worse choice (which is ALWAYS republican). Short of that, the corporation owns everyone, including the government.

    Good point... and last I heard, you can quit working for any corporation that attempts to enslave you. Good luck quitting IRS tax returns. ;)

    Quit and starve maybe, since the corporation owns it all. That's the closest thing to slavery I can imagine.

    Government pays the corporations.

    Do you see the vicious extraction circle we are caught in now?

    Hell, our taxes pay the interest on the debt, not any of the debt itself!

    Which part of corporate America wants to increase taxes on which other part of corporate America and thus cut into their profits?

    BTW - I work for a big-ass muliti-national corp. hq'd out of Sweden that really does remind me of govt. bureaucrats at their politically correct worst. They dearly love meaningless but pretty charts above all else and sit around dreaming up obfuscated non-solutions or even anti-solutions to obvious problems while trying to impress each other with how marvelous and important they all are. What is usually running thru my mind when I have to witness and even help implement some part of this nauseatingly idiotic bs (which is daily) is, FUK-U GOOFY BASTARDS! And all the while they smile and pat each other on their backs approvingly as some new and improved Tsunami of Stupid is spewed forth in our direction. God save us all from ******* bureaucrats!

    There is to date no evidence that Burzinski's treatments ever cured anyone. Studies have been done both here and in Britian regarding his treatment to date no one other than perhaps Burzinki believes that his treatment is worth pursuing.

    Dozens of his patients, free of cancer for years after being sent home to die and then getting his treatments, disagree. Some of the trials you refer to used only one compound, phenylacetate, while Burzinski's treatments involved more. Furthermore, in other "studies", the dosage of the compounds were diluted.

    Why wasn't the FDA and State of Texas successful in their attempts to stop, decertify and put Burzinski in prison if his treatments didn't work?

    This is one of my favorite lines from wikipedia: Oncologists have described Burzynski's studies as flawed, with one doctor stating that they are "scientific nonsense"

    Yes, the oncologists bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical industry, most likely with a strong incentive to keep any other breakthrough treatments. Based on government going after this guy time and time again, even after having multiple suits and charges dismissed time and time again, we will have to disagree and I will continue to believe these treatments have not been giving a fair evaluation- nor will they. There is simply too much big money involved selling poison and radiation as a "cure" to risk losing.

    That of course would be according to Burzinskis film. Read the wiki account for a more unbiased view.

    Unbiased, based on data crafted by people with a strong motive to maintain the status quo. Mainstream information isn't always the best. When it comes to the drug approval process and protocols, I am very skeptical of our government.

    People in the US are indeed trapped in a cycle of corporate exploitation and abuse. We have become a fascist police state. The government has become completely corrupted by the corporations to the point that corporations are the government.

    Well, that's the other end of the spectrum of the corporate hacks who wrecklessly rape and pilfer society without and forethought before they act in the name of fat cat mega profit.

    Funny, because I can show you NCI(National Cancer Institute) documents that say not only did it cure people, but it did it at 25% rates, which is much higher then chemo and radiation!

    All great posts are welcome in this thread. It's just the sort of thing a corporatist government does. Corporations are the US's only first-class people, with superior speech money and superior representation in US Government. The US Government is in breach of the constitutional contract declaring the government must be of, for, and by its people. WHY, would the US Founding Fathers use the word "people" here? OF COURSE Government is comprised of people!! The word is used to exclude aristocracies, monarchies, corporations, secret societies, clubs etc. from being the composition of the US Government that detracts from representation of real people!! The US Government as it is contains laws written by corporations, for corporations, with consideration of corporations, and all constituency, meeting, and benefactors corporations!!

    As such, the present US Government is in breach of the constitutional contract vis a vis the first 3 words of the very document, DESPITE its redefinition of the word "People", DESPITE its creation of a higher "people" class of superior personhood, superior speech-money, and superior government representation.

    Can't blame the government. The government has always been a wholly owned subsidiary of the corporations. "The business of government is business", not curing cancer.

    Creating cancer is much more profitable and is the business of the corporation.

    It's all about money. You can't really fault corporations for offering 'bribes' to politicians, because it's a corps' job to try to make more money, but you can certainly fault the politicians for taking the bribes, because that keeps them from doing what their job is.
    If I were 'king', I would remove every politician in Congress.

    disclaimer:
    I'd consider keeping Paul Ryan and Rand Paul, unless they turn out to be dishonest also.

    When the government conspires to keep cures away from patients, they can and indeed should be blamed.

    Ahhh yes..".don't blame the criminal" corporate mentality. Can't blame the illegal employer. Can't blame or hold accountable anyone who has the bucks. It's the banks fault for leaving the door open, not the robber. Familiar tone there I'd say.

    The US perpetuates a myth that money best belongs in the hands of the rich, because they tell people what to do (create jobs). It is the same myth of greed that has fomented aristocracy in all of history.

    The US Government is hell bent on creating an aristocracy ruling class, and a category of PEOPLE (corporations) with superior personhood, first class government representation, and superior freedom of "speech money". It is the VERY reason that the US Founding Fathers REQUIRED the US Government to be for the PEOPLE. Why! Why did the founders say "We the People"? OF COURSE Government is comprised of people. Royalty are people. Aristocracy is people. Corporations are people. ... The US Founders DID NOT WANT a Government that demeans, suppresses, and marginalizes its real and natural people in favour of an elite group of superior personhood, e.g. Kings, queens, royalty etc. IT'S THE VERY (*)(*)(*)(*)ING REASON THE US GOVERNMENT WAS FOUNDED, AND TODAY, THEY ARE IN BREACH OF CONTRACT!!!!

    Funny...I always looked at it like the workers actually did the work and provided the ability to profit. Now the money shufflers pretend they do it all (when they actually do nothing worthwhile).
