Big bureaucracies like the post office never delivered state-of-art service, because monopolies lack consequences for poor performance. We grumbled but still trusted clumsy bureaucracies to look out for us. Then Intelligence failed to warn of 9-11, the US Army Corps of Engineers’ New Orleans levees broke, bureaucratic response after Katrina was horrific, we got mired in unending wars on countries that never threatened us, and all of the highly-paid government economists and our representative got it wrong and tanked our economy.

Big Secret Number One
For decades the run-up to the economic crisis was hidden from us by the people we elected to watchdog our interests.

Since 1913 the secretive Federal Reserve Bank had monopoly control of US money and credit. Severe depression, multiple bubbles, and recessions happened under the Fed’s control, but generations of Congress demanded no accounting of this private cartel.

Finally, legislative bill HR1207 now seeks to audit the Fed’s spending, to find out where trillions of our money has gone.

You can help find out; telephone or email your representative. Tell him/her to support HR1207 because you want no more secrets.
The Congressional Switchboard is: 1-877-851-6437, just ask to be connected with your rep’s office. We pay them to listen and to work for us.

Since Congress ignored the American people who overwhelmingly said NO to bailouts, we must put far more pressure on our representatives, or find new reps who will support the people.

Big Secret Number Two
Way back in 1999, leading fluoride authority Hardy Limeback (B.Sc., Ph.D in Biochemistry, C.C.S., head of the Department of Preventive Dentistry for the University of Toronto, and president of the Canadian Association for Dental Research) apologized for previously championing fluoride added to public water.

“For the past 15 years I had refused to study the toxicology information that is readily available to anyone. Poisoning our children was the furthest thing from my mind,” he told an assembly of faculty and students at the University of Toronto.

Interviewed in the US, he said, “The vast majority of all fluoride additives come from Tampa Bay, Florida smokestack scrubbers. The additives are a toxic byproduct of the super-phosphate industry. Tragically, we’re not just dumping toxic fluoride into our drinking water; we’re also exposing unsuspecting people to deadly elements of lead, arsenic, and radium.”

Dr. Limeback found that regular ingestion of fluoride alters the basic architecture of human bones, making them weaker and brittle. He points out, cities that never fluoridated — in Canada and all across the industrialized world — have cavity rates lower than in cities with fluoridation.

But a decade after Dr. Limeback’s announcement, the Food and Drug Administration has given no warning to consumers, and American municipalities still fluoridate water. It’s another example of careless or corrupt bureaucracy favoring corporate profits and political payoffs over public welfare.

To regain our rights, citizens must push back a bureaucratic elite grown too big and powerful. Unlike recent generations, we can do our own research on the internet and begin taking responsibility away from inept, authoritarian bureaucrats.

Here’s a candid interview with Dr. Limeback, and one of his articles, with footnotes.
