Real Pandemic in the US Economy

By Rocky Vega

11/09/09 Stockholm, Sweden – In much the same way Goldman and the Wall Street crew have been bailed out financially by the US government, they now also have the rep of getting bailed out of swine flu with early access to the H1N1 shots.

Regular Americans, on the other hand, are still struggling to get flu shots to protect their health. At least it provides a welcome distraction from the nation’s real pandemic… becoming unemployed.

   Since those crooks have taken the vaccine, hopefully they will die from it and those who could not, and are living, will be much better off without them, or the vaccine. Aside from the exposure to the flu, which is probably moot, if it contains thimerserol, that is derived from mercury. Humans, all, are allergic to mercury. There is no safe level of exposure. Simply eating well, getting enough sleep, and staying healthy will take you a LOT further, and without paying ransom to the pharmaceutical companies. They are not in business for your health. They do not profit from your health. They are liars just like the despots in Washington. They bribe the despots thru PACs, donating to both parties in elections, so whoever wins, they win. Stop all PACs and lobbying.

   i have to re-iterate david’s comments about the complete fraud of the flu vaccine….it is another attrocious fraud which the government has bamboozled the moron majority….

   the flu season is not terribly out of the ordinary in term mortality, the flu vaccine is lethal with long term repercussions per the mercury and even more toxic to children, and regular healthy habits will bring most people through it…..

   see dr blaylock’s videos on youtube on this subject….besides, the h1n1 virus was created at ft dix….it’s entirely artificial and created for the express purpose of fear mongering and control….
