(NaturalNews) Even as Toyota now finds
itself the target of an increasingly hyped-up inquisition about "public
safety," skeptical consumers are asking the commonsense question: If
public safety is so important, then why isn't Congress asking about the
dangers of Big Pharma's deadly drugs?
Toyota's problems with throttle controls
and brakes haven't actually killed anyone as far as we know. Even if
deaths have occurred, their number would be extremely small compared to
the number of deaths caused by Big Pharma's products. FDA-approved
pharmaceuticals kill nearly 270 people each day in
the United States alone, and that's according to conservative
calculations published in the Journal of the American Medical
Association. That's equivalent to a jumbo jet airliner falling out of
the sky and crashing in a giant ball of flame every single day in the U.S.
If you're concerned about public safety
in the United States, there's no industry that's more dangerous than
the pharmaceutical industry. All the automobile manufacturers combined
can't even begin to approach the body bag count produced by Big Pharma.
So why is the U.S. Congress and mainstream media all of a sudden so
gung-ho to accuse Toyota of compromising public safety while ignoring
the far greater threat posed by Big Pharma? Because Toyota is an easy,
convenient target that can distract people from the far worse dangers
that no one dares speak of. As long as Americans can be distracted into
focusing their fear and anger on Toyota, Big Pharma keeps on committing
its crimes without being called to task.
And remember: Toyota is a foreign company
while the giants of Big Pharma are American companies. Congress is
quick to defend U.S. companies like General Motors and Merck, even if
those companies pose a very real danger to public safety.
Just yesterday, NaturalNews.com published
a story about the deliberate cover-up of deaths caused by Avandia, a
top diabetes drug made by GlaxoSmithKline. According to FDA scientists,
this drug is linked to 83,000 heart attacks. The company knew
about this increased risk -- and so did the FDA! Yet both the FDA and
GSK conspired to hide this information from the public, says the U.S.
Senate committee report (http://www.naturalnews.com/028233_G...).
As a result of this effort to
deliberately mislead the public over the lack of safety for its drug,
Avandia remained "FDA approved" and now causes an estimated 500 heart
attacks and 300 cases of heart failure every month in the USA alone.
That's the body count from just one
medication. Add up the fatalities from all the other thousands of
medications sold by the drug industry and you start to get the picture
of just how large this threat to public health really is. People are dying every day in America due to dangerous prescription medications that the FDA knew were dangerous years ago!
