Big Pharma vs. Barack Obama: Is real change now possible?

NaturalNews Insider Alert (www.NaturalNews.com) newsletter

Dear NaturalNews readers,

Now that Obama has won the U.S. presidency, is there any hope for real health care reforms that could end Big Pharma's monopoly over medicine and clean up the FDA? Cautiously, I'll say there's hope, but there's no guarantee that anything positive will happen unless we pursue our grassroots action campaigns in 2009. Read my article to learn about thirteen urgent legislative priorities that could revolutionize health and health care in America under an Obama administration: http://www.naturalnews.com/024705.html

Supreme Court nears decision to grant Big Pharma blanket immunity

NaturalNews Insider Alert (www.NaturalNews.com) newsletter

Dear NaturalNews readers,

The Supreme Court is about to rule on a case that could grant Big Pharma blanket immunity for ALL harm and deaths caused by their dangerous products. This would be a huge victory for Big Pharma and the FDA, and a devastating loss to fundamental human rights.

Naturally, the Bush Administration completely supports this blanket immunity, since Bush has been in bed with Big Pharma for so long that they're blaming each other for not changing the sheets. Read the startling facts on this pivotal Supreme Court decision here: http://www.naturalnews.com/024688.html

Meanwhile, it's not enough to treat American citizens like the enemy of Big Pharma: the Bush Administration has to commit war crimes against "enemy combatants," too, say Physicians for Human Rights: http://www.naturalnews.com/024696.html

Will Obama do any better? The word on the legal street is that if Obama gets elected, it's curtains for Big Pharma's influence over Washington. Then again, Big Pharma has started funneling tens of millions of dollars into Democrats' pockets, just to be sure. At the end of the day, the problem is not Democrats or Republicans. The problem is that lawmakers are for sale to the highest bidder, and as long as corporations can buy candidates, we'll never (yes, NEVER) have honest government, regardless of which party holds power in Washington.
