20 Ways Antihealth Departments Kill, Steal, and Abuse

Self Rule | 20.11.2009 18:50 | Animal Liberation | Health | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

Health Departments are servants of the drug company pawns
of the CDC, of the meat and dairy industries, of landlords. They are undemocratic, exceed by
many times their mandated powers.

20 Ways Antihealth Departments Kill, Steal, and Abuse



1. Fast Food Pawns: Across the US, many health departments ignore because of the power
of money the many salmonella and ecoli violations
at mega fast food outlets while bringing down great force on small operations. http://www.pcrm.org
2. Factory Farm Pawns: Health departments have allowed area factory farms to poison the waters
with colon bacteria (ecoli) from millions of
captive farm animals' feces and medication containing urine, from toxic insecticide
runoff etc.Meanwhile they comb the yards of individuals for rat feces.
3. Neglected Community Health: The priority concern of health departments is community health. Yet few have free clinics.
Instead, health officials bow to the pharmaceutical hospital doctor insurance industrial complex.
4 Food Destruction: Many health departments mandate destruction of
healthy fruits and vegetables with slight bruises. This adds to
the burden of 50 million Americans on food stamps or food deprived.
5. Dictatorship: Health department directors and sanitarians, building inspectors
are unelected.
6. Toxic Spraying: Health departments are eliminating fireflies, monarch butterflies, bees,
dragonflies, and countless other diverse species as they spray poisons in
the air of communities, poisoning the waters and air, violating
the will of the people and enriching huge chemical companies.
7. Mad Cow Muzzling: Health departments in concert with the CDC are deliberately
misclassifying Mad Cow, Mad Pig, Mad Chicken, Mad Fish, Mad Deernd other BSE deaths as meningitis,
encephalitis, leukemia, Alzheimer's, brain tumors etc.  http://www.maddeer.org Meanwhile the USDA
maintains the ludicrous myth that there has been
no incidence of Mad Cow in the US.
8. Deforestation: Health departments have given orders to remove centenarian trees
as they dictate to homeowners what they can do on their own
property.  http://www.greenpeace.org
9 Prevention of Biological Diversity: Many health departments enforce compulsory mowing ordinances
which violate the first amendment, destroy biological diversity,
cause 75,000 accidents annually in the US. They continue to violate EPA
guidelines (e.g. the Chicago EPA has developed a free legal brief for those
wishing to fight compulsory mowing unconstitutional ordinances) and in at least
one case have never paid out a court ordered judgment against them.

10. Mammal Murder: Health departments have been involved in a genocidal war against
rats, raccoons, etc and have violated the spiritual beliefs of Franciscans, Buddhists,
Hindus, Sufis, Jains and many others whose religions teach that all life is sacred.
11 Revenge: In many cities a mayor can use many agencies in a coordinated
attack against his political opponents. A disgruntled neighbor can activate the local health department,
building inspection, animal control, police, fire inspectors can give
a constant parade of harrassers to someone. Health department officials have
been known to threaten calls to the building inspector unless their privacy invading
'sanitarian' is allowed in. The federal govt. has proposed that local health
inspectors, meter readers etc. enter data into a national data bank.
12. Toxic Vaccine Distribution: Through compulsory and dangerous pet
vaccinations, through promotion of Baxter, Glaxo, Roche, Aventis, Chiron
and other war profiteer lethal 'flu' shots, health departments enable
the engorging of international drug companies in concert with the drug company dominated CDC. (Rumsfeld has American distribution
rights to Roche's toxic Tamiflu.)The World Health Organization's socalled smallpox
vaccine spread AIDS throughout Africa.
13. Satanic Orders: A Canton Ohio health department director threatened a resident with jail because she was feeding a stray
cat.
14. Cat Trapping: In many cities, the local health
department has pressured city councils into trapping cats and dogs rather than spaying them. One of several reasons: Because
laboratories such as Harvard, UC Davis, Univ of Texas, Univ of Wisconsin, Yale,
Cornell, Princeton, Yerkes, Emory want a constant stream of animals to kill.
15. Raccoons: Raccoons are being poisoned
with what the public is told
is rabies vaccine.
16. Lies: The socalled West Nile Virus comes to carnivorous birds and is misnamed by
.. the CDC and Health Dept. in order to avoid panic about the pandemic
of Avian Spongiform Encephalopathy or Mad Chicken  http://www.maddeer.org
17. Neglect: Health departments do not inform the public that
the major cause of disease is the eating of cadavers of murdered
mammals, birds, and fishes. Animal fat, amyloid plaque, uric acid, ecoli,
ammonia from protein etc. cause over 70% of the world's deaths. Over 50%
are caused by clogged brain arteries (strokes), heart arteries (heart
attacks), femoral arteries (aneurisms) etc.
18. Bulldozing Homes: In league with realtors, health departments bulldozed brick
homes, harassing homeowners as they attempted to create a scarcity
of housing and consequent high rents. Now with millions
of homes vacant in big American cities, the rent bubbles still have not burst.
19. Other Property Destruction: Health departments add to poverty by mandating the removal
and possible destruction of cars. When banks hold liens on
these cars, the poor are caught in a war between bankster gangsters
and health department nazis.
20. Enforcing narrowly held aesthetics: Health department officials have demanded
their own special narrow view of aesthetics, a bland
uniformity. For no safety or health reason, they
have ordered the repaving of driveways,
the fixing of windows with small cracks. They
have mandated in some cases tens of thousands
of dollars of expenditure which the poor cannot
possibly afford.
