Peanut Butter Company Banned from Business with Federal Government, but Big Pharma Kills Thousands More with Impunity

By Mike Adams, February 6, 2009
The U.S. Dept. of Agriculture has banned Peanut Corporation of America from doing business with the federal government. The reason for the ban? Peanut Corp lied about the safety of its peanut butter product, which sickened several hundred people and is linked to the death of eight.

But hold on here: Drug companies routinely lie about the safety of their products. And pharmaceuticals kill at least 100,000 Americans a year, even when used as directed. So why hasn't Big Pharma been banned from conducting business with the federal government?

The reason is obvious: Because Peanut Corp. doesn't have influence in Washington, but Big Pharma does.

Don't think for a minute that action against Peanut Corp is about public safety. If anyone in Washington were genuinely worried about public safety, they'd go after the drug companies, or the chemical polluters, or the companies putting toxic chemicals into the food on purpose! (Aspartame, MSG, sodium nitrate, etc.) But this is about grandstanding, not protecting the public. So authorities in Washington can put on a good show pretending to "protect the public" while pressing for criminal charges against a company that sells a product that's thousands of times safer than pharmaceuticals -- even when it's contaminated with salmonella!

Hilariously, as the NY Times reports, a top dog at the Agriculture Department said, "The actions of P.C.A. indicate that the company lacks business integrity and business honesty, which seriously and directly hinders its ability to do business with the federal government."

Well gee, if this is the criteria for doing business with the federal government, there's practically no pharmaceutical company in the country that shouldn't be banned!

You want to protect Americans? Conduct criminal investigations against drug companies and the FDA. That's the fastest way to stop the needless deaths plaguing our nation thanks to a corrupt, criminally-operated health care system run by crooks.

Lorraine here to suggest you get a copy of Kevin Trudeau's books Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You to Know About, or More Natural "Cures" Revealed, or The Weight Loss Cure "They" Don't Want You to Know About. Personally I think "whistle blower" Kevin Trudeau gets a "bad wrap" from the media. Read what he has to say about Big Pharma and the major food manufacturers. You'll think twice about Kellogg's, Keebler, Kraft, Nabisco....

I've been so sick!! (A friend said "You look awful.") I broke my resolve to N-O-T use over-the-counter medications. Yesterday, I bought maximum strength Mucinex DM. The mucus is unending, and the strangling cough leaves me exhausted!! Three tablets have not alleviated the problem!! Itchy eyes, sneezing.... Time to break another resolve and see a medical doctor?? (I sat on the back row at Church so I could inconspicuously slip out during an incident.)
