The Legislated Drugging of the American People

BY Nancy Levant

First, the facts: according to the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), "Senators Joseph Lieberman (D-Conn.) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) introduced the "Project BioShield II Act of 2005" (S. 975) on April 29, 2005. The bill builds upon the first BioShield bill, which was signed into law on July 21, 2004, and authorized $5.6 billion over 10 years to encourage pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to develop bioterrorism countermeasures. BioShield II would provide additional liability protections for firms creating vaccines or drugs that could cause injuries. No action has been scheduled on the bill yet."


"At a May 11 hearing, Senator Richard Burr (R-N.C.), chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Subcommittee on Bioterrorism Public Health Preparedness, said he would take into consideration both S. 975 and S. 3 in crafting his version of BioShield II. S. 3, introduced by Senator Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and includes provisions similar to those in S. 975 that encourage companies to develop bioterrorism countermeasures."

"The President signed the Project BioShield Act (P.L. 108-276) into law on July 21, following final approval by the House on July 14. The legislation authorizes funds to encourage pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to develop bioterrorism countermeasures."

"First proposed in the 2003 State of the Union address, Project BioShield provides $5.6 billion over ten years. The final bill guarantees this funding cannot be diverted for other purposes, but Congress retains discretion over the program's annual appropriations, such as the $890 million approved for FY 2004."

"Senators Judd Gregg (R-N.H.), Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) are said to be working on "BioShield II," a bill that will provide liability protections for firms creating vaccines or drugs that could cause injuries."

"Provided under the proposed Department of Homeland Security FY 2005 budget is $2.5 billion for Project BioShield, three times the $890 million provided by Congress in FY 2004. The conference report of the FY 2004 Homeland Security Appropriations bill was signed by the President October 1 (P.L. 108-90) and included $890 million for Project BioShield."

"Project BioShield," first announced in the President's State of the Union address in January, is designed to expand and speed up the availability of vaccines and treatments to combat potential bioterrorism agents. Under the plan, the federal government would provide $6 billion over 10 years to create and produce vaccines and treatments and would guarantee drug companies a buyer for these products. In addition, the Food and Drug Administration would have the authority to expedite the approval process for vaccines and treatments."

So, let's get this straight: Project BioShield encourages, expands, and speeds up new business for big pharma, and then guarantees big pharma that they will absolutely have buyers for new drugs if they make them. $2.5 billion from Homeland Security plus another $890 million for Project BioShield, which guarantees the sale of any and all vaccines big pharma comes up with in the next 10 years.

And then there is the New Freedom Initiative on Mental Health, which initially mandates mental health screening and enforced drugging of American's children and pregnant women, but hopes to mandate enforced drugging of all American people.

Next, lets look at the Medical Emergency Health Powers Act (note the word "Powers"). According to a report from the Heritage Institute, "Model State Emergency Health Powers Act, upon the declaration of a public health emergency, governors and public health officials would be empowered to:

1. Force individuals suspected of harboring an "infectious disease" to undergo medical examinations.

2. Track and share an individual's personal health information, including genetic information.

3. Force persons to be vaccinated, treated, or quarantined for infectious diseases.

4. Mandate that all health care providers report all cases of persons who harbor any illness or health condition that may be caused by an epidemic or an infectious agent and might pose a "substantial risk" to a "significant number of people or cause a long-term disability." (Note: Neither "substantial risk" nor "significant number" are defined in the draft.)

5. Force pharmacists to report any unusual or any increased prescription rates that may be caused by epidemic diseases.

6. Preempt existing state laws, rules and regulations, including those relating to privacy, medical licensure, and--this is key--property rights.

7. Control public and private property during a public health emergency, including pharmaceutical manufacturing plants, nursing homes, other health care facilities, and communications devices.

8. Mobilize all or any part of the "organized militia into service to the state to help enforce the state's orders."

9. Ration firearms, explosives, food, fuel and alcoholic beverages, among other commodities.

10. Impose fines and penalties to enforce their orders."

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but it looks like our drug culture has gone politically mainstream and very Fascist. I see enforced, legislated drugging and a legislated guarantee of the sale of drugs that aren't even developed, AND a legislated guarantee to speed up the approval process for unknown drugs. Just how does one speed up that process?

Let's add more to our connecting dots. The U.N. - the group best known for their observation of the world's "ethnic cleansing" armies, has called for global population reductions. The U.N., who sends in "peacekeepers" to stand and watch as millions of innocents are brutally chopped to bits, poisoned, and slaughtered.

And how about those mercury-laced vaccines that poisoned a generation or two of children with Autism. And how about the mass-marketed drug, Viagra, and its link to blindness. And how about the psychotropic drugs that have increased teen suicide numbers in the U.S. by more than double.

I also can't help but think about how pleasant it must be for our public schools to enjoy Medicare funding in exchange for finding children in need of enforced drugging, and how nicely those universal mental health screenings will boost the annual operating budgets of public schools.

And then there is TMAP - The Texas Medical Algorithm Project. TMAP was marketed as a "Model Program." However, TMAP is far more than a program. It is a cover device. TMAP combines the newest and most expensive and untested psychotropic drugs under one umbrella, and then gets access to captive populations, like prisoners and school children, to test their new intellect and mood-manipulating drugs. Funny thing how the president's New Freedom Initiative recommends the TMAP model of matching symptoms to the TMAP new-fangled drug concoctions. Hmmm.

And TMAP comes with a hitch. When states adopted the TMAP model, doctors were required to prescribe the TMAP drugs over and above the older and thoroughly test psychotropic drugs. How sad for the children who in massive numbers found horrible, suicidal, and deadly side effects from TMAP drugs. Prozac, Zoloft, Adderall, Buspar, Wellbutron, Zyban, Paxil, and many, many others - have you noticed the non-stop, televised prime-time advertising of the TMAP drugs for the last 3 years? Hmmm.

TMAP is a big pharma marketing scheme that was implemented with the help of politicians who received big pharma campaign funding. It is ONE of the most evil, most unconscionable wheeling and dealing, to date. And now, add to all the above Project BioShield II, which gives TMAP model-like powers to include "enforced" vaccines of experimental drugs. We are being mass-drugged as a point and mandate of public-private partnership.

There is no denying the legislated facts and corruption behind the pharmaceutical industry and its funding of politically complicit monsters. If you own stock in big pharma, you are poisoning and killing, and you, too, are complicit.

American citizens, where is the outcry? Where are you? What more evidence do you need? And if you think that "illegal drugs" are unrelated to government policy, then you are again blinded by liars and thieves. Illegal drugs are tied to the teeth to global weapons, false dictatorships and governments, and to internal and orchestrated terrorism upon unknowing people.

Our power is in our combined wealth. Don't support the public schools. Don't support big pharma. And you can bet your bottom dollar that CAFTA-CODEX connection is backed by big pharma, as well. Wake up. Please, America, wake up. Mass corruption surrounds you at every level and around every corner. We are living in the land of lies.
