Dedication
This book is dedicated to Peaceful Warriors everywhere.
“Each man must for himself alone decide what is right and what is wrong, which course is patriotic and which isn’t. You cannot shirk this and be a man. To decide against your conviction is to be an unqualified and excusable traitor, both to yourself and to your country, let me label you as they may.” - Mark Twain

Foreword and Conventions
The primary purpose of this book is to educate the readers. The information presented will typically be outside the ‘mainstream’ realm of thought. The reader should keep in mind that all intellectual advancement comes from a shift in assumptions.
The current health care (‘Sick Care’) system is failing and has been monopolized by the pharmaceutical industry. A new train of thought is needed; one towards ‘alternative therapies’ first and Allopathic and pharmaceutical modalities last. My intent is to provide the reader with evidence and arguments to support this assertion.
As with all individuals, I am not without personal biases. The reader should keep in mind that I am trained as an Allopathic physician (Medical Doctor). I do consider myself more than open to other healing modalities. My intent is to educate the reader on how these techniques can benefit society’s quest for optimal health.
This book also has an unorthodox format. One being the publication as an Ebook as well as a hard copy. Many references are internet based and website links and references will be included in the text. Unfortunately, I can not be responsible for websites disappearing or being censored. Websites do ‘disappear’ when they contradict the mainstream media. Text is quoted in italics with sources cited below. This is done as ‘fair use’ and ease of reference, not to infringe on copyrights. The reader should make use of the weblinks and sources cited. I can only present the information and sources. It is up to the reader to research further and THINK for themselves.
One should keep in mind that mainstream media is biased in it’s presentation of ‘facts’ by the necessity to please or not displease sponsors and advertisers.
From whoownsthenews.com:
“…Major multinational corporations, Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds and Saudi Princes, all hell bent on protecting their own interests, choose what you will see on the nightly news and trick you into believing it is unbiased reporting. As we see below all the major news outlets, regardless of what they make you believe, contributed heavily to George W. Bush in both 2000 and 2004 so any argument that they are controlled by liberals evaporates. In this case they all supported the candidate that promised to allow consolidation of multiple media companies….”
…GENERAL ELECTRIC - NBC (In they 2000 donated 1.1 million to George W Bush for his election campaign) …
* NBC: Owns outright 13 stations and many affiliates, Market penetration: 28% of US households…
…DISNEY - ABC
(Donated $640,000 to George W Bush’s 2000 political campaign)
TV Holdings:
* ABC: includes 10 stations outright, many affiliates, Penetration in the market: 24% of US households….

“…The television sports network ESPN has been accused of covering up jeers directed at former President George H.W. Bush by football fans in New Orleans during a September 25th Monday Night Football broadcast. ESPN denied the allegation when contacted by RAW STORY…”

Uh, Excuse me! But, aren’t ESPN and ABC ‘affiliated’?
When our sources of information are controlled by ‘entities’ that are profit seeking, we are in grave danger. When these same ‘entities’ control our health information and access to healing our collective health is in trouble.
After the reader has had the opportunity to view ‘unsponsored information (a.k.a. propaganda)’, many will conclude that, We Have Got It All Wrong.
A Moment of Doubt
The patient was asleep and her body completely draped. The anesthesia equipment was making it’s usual buzzing, beeping and hissing sounds. It reminded me of the sounds on the Enterprise from the television show Star Trek. Everything seemed to be running smoothly as nurses counted instruments and everyone prepared for surgery. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that something was terribly wrong.
It seemed to me that much of this was unnecessary. Intuitively, I KNEW it was all ‘wrong’. I wondered: How valuable would a doctor be if there wasn’t special equipment? No pharmaceuticals? Why are our methods of healing so distant from natures resources? Has anyone looked
