update on scary legislation and rant

Well, an update on some of the scary legislation out there. It is a sad time for organic farmers, home gardeners, and all those who place a priority on health and freedom. Many of you out there may already know that HS 875's more evil brother, HS 2749, was pushed through the house. It actually did NOT pass the first time, so rules were changed to allow for a 51 member vote, rather than a 60 member vote, and it passed. Next, it will go to the Senate, and if it passes there, our rights to garden our own food, eat organically grown food, organically raised animal products, and non gmo foods will be gone. I have written to my states representatives, and I strongly urge all of you out there to do the same. I would also recommend that you learn to grow your food and begin to stock up on heirloom seeds, while still available.

Yes, I realize this sounds Orwellian and extreme. Sadly, it is the reality of the age we live in. Check it out if you don't believe me. It is all about profit, and personally I am not going to allow my personal health and freedoms to be violated in the name of profit without a fight.

I have said it before, but it bears repeating. It IS NOT HEALTHY to eat food that has been grown or raised with chemical fertalizers, pesticides, or has been genetically modified of raised on genetically modified food. It is not healthy to eat animal products that have been fed diets that they are not biologically supposed to eat. It is not healthy to ingest toxins into our bodies, EVER. It is NO COINCIDENCE that the rates of DIABETES, CANCER, HEART DISEASE, and OBESITY have NEVER been HIGHER. This is no accident. It is profitable to have a sick, unhealthy population. It won't do the makers of roundup (Monsanto) any good to have more and more people eating organic produce. It will not do the makers of insulin any good if people knew that they could possibly cure their diabetes. It would not do the meat industry any good if people figured out that meat (especially conventionally raised meat) is a huge health threat and quit consuming it. No, it would drive these folks out of business! A very good, informative documentary on all of this recently came out, called "Food, INC.". I would highly recommend it to every person in this country, as it sheds light on exactly where our food comes from.

Folks, the MOST IMPORTANT thing that you possess is your health. If you have health problems, or weight problems, it is NOT TOO LATE!! As long as you are breathing, you have the opportunity to turn things around. But explore and seek out ALL options and opinions. Consult with a Naturopath, a Homeopath, a Chiropractor, an Herbalist...not just an M.D. Learn about alternative cures. Once you find the right one, they work, I promise you, and without the side effects pharmacueticals cause. The information is out there, all over the place, go get it!! Become informed and mostly, TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR OWN HEALTH!! Because the government and the major corporations that are running the show do not want what is best for you, they are concerned only with the bottom line.
