Contaminated Street Drugs? BigPharma Has a Pill for That

Posted on: September 28, 2017, in: , , , , , , , , , , ,

NO DRUGS pixabayFor several years, druggies have known that MDMA —  ecstasy or molly —  is normally contaminated with bath salts and other poisons, and users can suffer horrific results. Now that the FDA in its stupidity has approved a test of MDMA for PTSD, a clean source of MDMA will be needed, which is most likely part of the plan to get BigPharma producing street drugs to take over the illicit drug trade.

Actually, most street drugs were already invented by pharmaceutical companies, so they already hold most patents, and should have an easy time crowding out the illegal producers once everyone is hooked and all this stuff is legal or at least decriminalized.

BigPharma created heroin (Bayer) and LSD (Sandoz). Merck pioneered the commercial manufacture of morphine, distributed cocaine, and invented MDMA. OxyCodone, which started the recent “opioid crisis” was created by German scientists and pushed into society by Purdue Pharma, marketed as a “slow release” opioid, which, according to the company, meant you wouldn’t get hooked, so doctors could freely prescribe as much of it as they wanted. Crystal meth was first created in Japan, and after WWII, Abbott Labs won FDA approval for meth as a prescription remedy for alcoholism weight gain, etc. Fentanyl, responsible for the majority of opioid deaths in “the opioid crisis” was invented by Janssen Pharmaceutica

And for those addicts who want off, there’s “Medication Assisted Treatment” (MAT) to swap the user to opioids covered by insurance. And for overdoses, there’s a $4500 dose of naloxone.

In the background, you have the shrinks inventing disorders as fast as they can brainstorm them, so their pharma buddies can invent a drug to “maintain” it. Cures are impossible, they say, and drug addicts and mental health patients need maintenance drugs for the rest of their lives.

Once you know the destination, it’s easy to follow the trail, and the trail leads to a country run by the psychs and BigPharma, full of drug-addicted slaves — that’s the “off-label” application of these drugs. And for side-effects?  BigPharma rakes in about $1 trillion a year currently, with huge expansion on the horizon.

The Return of  Government Mind Control Programs

Posted on: September 14, 2017, in: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

CIA Director Richard Helms, who in 1973 tried to destroy all trace of MKULTRA.

CIA Director Richard Helms, who in 1973 tried to destroy all trace of MKULTRA.

Back during the Cold War, the government – worried about Soviet, Chinese and North Korean brainwashing – began experimenting with mind control techniques. One of the worst was MKULTRA. According to government records:  “Between 1953 and 1966,” said the Supreme Court, “the Central Intelligence Agency financed a wide-ranging project, code-named MKULTRA, concerned with ‘the research and development of chemical, biological, and radiological materials capable of employment in clandestine operations to control human behavior.’ The program consisted of some 149 subprojects which the Agency contracted out to various universities, research foundations, and similar institutions. At least 80 institutions and 185 private researchers participated. Because the Agency funded MKULTRA indirectly, many of the participating individuals were unaware that they were dealing with the Agency.”

Unfortunately, in 1973, CIA Director Richard Helms ordered all MKULTRA records destroyed. Fortunately, some 20,000 documents were later discovered, and in 2001 some surviving information was declassified and thus much of the impact of this program became public record.

What was discovered were horrific experiments – many conducted with unwitting subjects – using drugs such as LSD, electroshock, and unconsciousness to eliminate memories or to plant false ones. “Psychic driving” by Dr. Ewen Cameron, killing an elephant with LSD by Louis Jolyon West and electrical and chemical brain implants by Manuel Rodriguez Delgado.

Recently, Rodriguez Delgado’s work with implants that delivered electricity and chemicals directly to the brain (which he called stimoceivers and chemitrodes respectively) have returned with more advanced technology, disguised as help and healing. “Electroceuticals,” developed by GlaxoSmithKline and other drug firms, are electronic brain implants to replace the heavy hand of psychopharmaceuticals with their no-better-than-placebo results, skyrocketing costs, unpredictable and sometimes lethal side effects, and competition by generic drug equivalents.

Pharmaceutical companies, the military and psychiatry are again hard at work to recreate the same mind-control techniques supposedly abandoned almost 70 years ago. Consider that DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency predicts that within a few years, scientists will gain the ability to wipe out a PTSD-causing memory and replace it with something else. Flowers and sunny days, perhaps. DARPA’s “Electrical Prescriptions” program (ElectRx) seeks to develop “… real-time biosensors and novel neural interfaces using optical, acoustic, electromagnetic, or engineered biology strategies…” Like MKULTRA, mind control experiments are targeted on veterans – in World War II they were afflicted with “shell shock” or “battle fatigue,” and in recent times, it’s “PTSD.” It seems that veterans in trouble are convenient targets for experiments in mind control.

And Louis Jolyon West’s psychedelic druggings are back again as well. The Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) seeks to use MDMA, LSD, psilocybin, and similar drugs to “treat” PTSD and other conditions.

So can the government, big pharma and psychiatry be trusted with mind control? In the 1950s they secretly implemented a mind control agenda with MKULTRA using drugs, electrical stimulation and electroshock. Do they deserve a second chance with the latest and greatest technology? Have they reformed?

In 2013 Edward Snowden exposed a secret NSA surveillance program called Prism. Twenty years earlier, the Clinton Administration tried to implement the Clipper Chip that would put a government backdoor in all computers and networks. That flopped amid public outrage, but it seems now that the government went ahead anyway snooping into phone records, Internet, email and other communications.

The FDA just decided to lower the risk category of electroconvulsive “therapy” so children can receive it, and pharmaceuticals are now a $1.5 trillion dollar economic giant. So no, these psychedelic, electrode implanting, pill pushing electroshocking cretins cannot be trusted and must be stopped.

Oregon Decriminalizes Hard Drugs

Posted on: September 05, 2017, in: , , , , , ,

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown on Aug. 15 signed Oregon House Bill 2355 that stiffens regulations on traffic stops, and also reduces the penalty for first offense possession of small amounts of Schedule 1 drugs — such as methadone, oxycodone, heroin, ecstasy, cocaine, and methamphetamine — from a felony to a misdemeanor.

The bill was filed at the request of Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum, who said in a release that the bill implements anti-profiling laws and reduces penalties for lower-level drug offenders. Oregon Rep. Mitch Greenlick (D.) – who is also a pharmacist and former Kaiser Foundation vice president of research, said in a Washington Free Beacon article: “We’ve got to treat people, not put them in prison It would be like putting them in the state penitentiary for having diabetes. … This is a chronic brain disorder and it needs to be treated this way.”

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) also supported the bill and said in a release that the war on drugs has failed, and law enforcement money can be better spent elsewhere. It also says that minorities are unfairly targeted, and treatment, education and rehabilitation are the answers.

The majority of Republicans in both House and Senate voted against the bill as well as some Democrats. Democrat Sen. Betsy Johnson said the bill was misguided and called it a “hug-a thug-policy.”

Analysis:

One could argue that the war on drugs wasn’t lost, it was invented by pharmaceutical firms. Bayer invented heroin as a supposedly non-addictive treatment for morphine addiction. Doctors then backed off use of addictive opioids for pain relief except in the most extreme cases. Then Purdue pharmaceuticals in 1996 marketed a timed-release tablet that the company said was a non-addictive opioid called OxyContin which came into use for all sorts of minor pains. Predictably, OxyContin acted like the opioid it was and hooked thousands of people, then spread illegally into the society and ushered in what is now officially called “The Opioid Crisis.”.

Similarly, LSD was synthesized by a chemist at Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, was tested by the CIA at American Universities, and spread into society.

Oregon was a national leader in stopping methamphetamine use by passing a law in 2006 requiring a prescription to obtain the pseudoephedrine precursor.  Meth busts dropped in Oregon and Mississippi which had a similar law. But other states – under heavy lobbying by the pharmaceutical industry – failed to pass similar laws, and meth use rose again, as the precursors and meth itself were smuggled in from other states and Mexico.

So why would pharmaceutical firms risk association with illicit drug use, addiction, crime, degradation and death? Because now that “the war on drugs has failed,” and our prisons are full of casualties, “treatment” is conducted with pharmaceutical drugs, states like Oregon are legalizing marijuana and reducing penalties for opioid use, and billions of dollars are going to treat opioid addiction. How is opioid addiction treated? With something called Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT).  MAT takes people addicted to heroin, for example, and switches them to legal pharmaceutical products such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. The National Institute for Drug Abuse says addiction is a chronic disease which needs long-term care so the recovering addict may need these prescriptions for the rest of his or her life. And big pharma also markets another drug to use in cases of opioid overdose, called Naloxone (Also called Narcan and Evzio).  A supply should be carried by thousands of first responders, doctors, and family members of addicts or those on opioid pain relievers. The cost of a dose just jumped from $575 a dose to about $4,500 according to Wired Magazine, and has a shelf life of 18-24 months.

As for the statement: “[Jailing drug addicts] would be like putting them in the state penitentiary for having diabetes?” See the above item on “medication assisted treatment,” by pharmaceuticals. And the statement is uttered by a pharmacist. Many groups see addiction as a disease, including the American Medical Association and the American Society of Addiction Medicine. The addict is not responsible for his addiction, says this theory, as it is changes in the brain and DNA which create addiction. It’s all body, and body is what doctors treat. Even psychiatrists think addiction, depression, schizophrenia etc. are all diseases, thus the terms “mental health” and “mental illness.” even though there are no scientific tests for disorders such as “oppositional defiant disorder” “ADHD” “obsessive compulsive disorder” and so on to the tune of some 300 different so-called diseases cataloged in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual used by psychiatrists to bill for insurance payments. There are tests for diabetes, but psychiatric “disorders” are simply voted on by psychiatrists from time to time, so that pharmaceutical companies can get busy and invent new pills. And thus we have speed given legally to children for not sitting still, the definition of autism expanded into “autism spectrum disorder” to scoop up millions more children and put them on expensive pharmaceuticals, and mental health given parity with physical health in the Affordable Care Act, to secure the funding for all this pharma. So the war on drugs has not been lost, it has been more clearly defined as a battle between pharmaceutical profits and the peace and security of American neighborhoods and families. And that is a battle we cannot lose.
