a world without greed......

just checked out "natural cures 'they' don't want you to know about" at the library... damn glad i didn't waste my money purchasing it. there should be a disclaimer with this book that reads "if you are looking for specific products and cures you will not find them in this book. you will need to go to my website and pay money, either $499 for a lifetime membership or $9.95/month. then you can e-mail me and i will send you the product information you are seeking." [the author claims that because he isn't a medical doctor, the FTC forbids him from providing specific health product recommendations/medical treatments, even though he does suggest a few names of certain products--that are not supplements--that provide health benefits. left me kind of confused.....and he could have given general recommendations if he had hired a medical doctor to review his information. no reason for him not to have hired a doc to review his material and provide non-product specific, general recommendations. i have a host of books written by your ordinary writer that are full of herbal remedies, homeopathic remedies designed for specific medical conditions....and these books have assigned a medical doctor to review the material.... personally, i believe it's a scam to get you to line his already wealthy pockets. so his crying wolf of "waaaa there is no free speech left because i cannot give you my personal recommendations" is a lie. a manipulating lie in that although he may not be able to give product brand information irregardless of whether he's a medical doctor, he could have hired a dang doc and provided general information such as apple cider vinegar for this or garlic for that.]
i have all of these amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing products to offer you, but first you have to dish out ten bucks a month...........i wonder how long it takes to actually hear back from him...........likely months..........that way he can suck a good hundred bucks out of your pocket.........
it's also misleading in that the title alone, "natural cures they don't want you to know about" implies the cures are listed inside of the book. another misconception.
kevin trudeau is first and foremost a money making, marketing machine. and he manipulates and distorts in order to make that money. and that, in my opinion, irregardless of how much useful information he may provide, makes him every bit the greedy filth he accuses the government and big business of being.
there is some good info in this book though and i am right there beside in him saying that western medicine is designed to treat symptoms and not the cause......that pharmaceutical drugs are by and large toxic, dangerous and at times, deadly.......and that the pharmaceutical industry wants us sick.............if we ain't sick, they no make their money.........and as k.t. proclaims "it's all about the money."
i'd say it's all about the money for him as well............if he was truly interested in helping people, he would proclaim that the revenue he received from those who bought his book paid enough money already.........they would be entitled to receive his recommendations on specific products free of charge...........money motivates and he is enticing people to send their money to him every month to join in his campaign....however mr. k.t., when you don't have the money, 'free' is a great motivator as well..........
perhaps the greatest factor contributing to our health problems falls into one concept: greed
without greed, we wouldn't have big business polluting the air and waterways and our soil......
without greed, we wouldn't have a class system.......all would be equal.......all would have equal access to health care--holistic, traditional/allopathic, etc......
without greed, we would be less fearful, more relaxed, more loving, more concerned with one another.......
without greed, the focus would be on the well-being of others instead of money...
without greed, honesty would return to business and government......
without greed, there would be no suppression of methods that cure what hurts and ails us......
without greed, WE WOULD RETURN TO A STATE OF CARING FOR ONE ANOTHER AND FOR OUR HOME, MOTHER EARTH...........no one would get left behind.........
so there you have it..........a remedy for perfect health for the people and the planet.........a natural cure..........only i want you to know about it...........and you don't need to send me $10 a month to receive it.
although i do accept donations of chocolate........
