The idiot cycle: What you aren't being told about cancer.

The Idiot Cycle, a French-Canadian documentary, alleges six major chemical companies are responsible for decades of cancer causing chemicals and pollution, while also developing cancer treatments and drugs. It also argues these companies own the most patents on genetically modified crops that have never been tested for long term health impacts like cancer.

1. K&R for those of us

who knew this and those who suspected but weren't sure, and of course, for those who didn't know.

4. Thanks for the link!

Create the problem, provide the solution, profit a shit-ton from doing both. It's absurdly unconscionable, and absolutely criminal what these fuck get away with. Thought I also read somewhere that fast-food restaurants like McDonalds own stock in health insurance companies. This is why it matters fuck-all when people like the Kochs donate $100 million to cancer research - they're the monsters causing the cancer, they should be required to pay that and a whole lot more!

5. I get a "page not found"

[madokie]

6. Thanks

[get the red out]

7. I should be shocked

But I'm not.

[Raine]

21. Same here

really nothing shocks or suprises me anymore. You can never be too cynical and it"s really sad that it's come to that. :-(

8. A truly immoral conflict of interest.

The vicious cycle of profits that cause madness: love of money over respect for life.

The chemical industry has a lot to answer for, and it is past time to start ridding ourselves of these avoidable dangers. Secrecy and ignorance keep too many people confused and poisoned.

Now that we finally have some better tools to examine the toxicity of all these synthetic compounds we can get to work. These will be good jobs and the money invested to cure and prevent disease will be a most excellent investment in our future.

Take a good look, if you please, at what progress is being made in understanding the epigenetic controls of metabolic functions and the influence of chemicals and diets on them:

It would appear that all synthetic chemicals need to be re-tested for this more subtle toxicity, that is passed on through generations but with no actual changes in the DNA sequence.

9. Since this is the state of our Union, how about we hear about this stuff in the State of the Union?

Then I'd be really impressed.

10. What are the 6 chemicals?

[azul]

11. You didn't watch the video, did you?

I like it when the music changes key, then the end when it goes south and dies off.

[Lorien]

12. Not everyone has the time or a fast enough connection to watch the video. nt

[azul]

13. Sorry, I was trying to be kind for missing

"alleges six major chemical companies are responsible" in the above post, trying for discovery inspiration.

[ohheckyeah]

14. Where is the video?

It's not on the page at the link.

[Shallah Kali]

16. try this link to official site

18. K & R for reviewing later n/t

20. Recently Ann Coulter said that radiation is good for you...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpNjUGvry40

Does she contribute to this idiot cycle?

[Hubert Flottz]

23. Radiation might be good for someone as repulsive and...

obnoxious as Anne. If it turned her into the fifty foot lady, her neck would be three stories tall. She already looks like a very blonde pelican, trying to swallow a fish.

22. Before my child was diagnosed with autism and I got to see the same seedy underbelly,

I guess I would be shocked. Not anymore.

[blackspade]

24. Lovely.

Not.
