Isn’t it amazing how powerful industries can leverage their way into mass producing and administering a plethora of toxic products to society’s members while creating the illusion and public perception that their poisons are completely safe based on scientific standards?
I recently read a post on Pam Vernon’s site that discussed the similarities between the blueprints used by Big Tobacco and Big Pharma in gaining public confidence in the safety of cigarettes and vaccines for potential consumers.
“The tobacco industry’s genius wasn’t in refuting science but in corrupting it from within. They created their own research institutes, funded friendly scientists, ghostwrote papers, and transformed medical journals into marketing vehicles. They manufactured a “controversy” where none existed, keeping their product on the market for decades after its dangers were known. By the time of the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement, tobacco had killed millions while generating trillions in profits.”
