Just a thought


A car company can move it's factories to Mexico and claim

....it's a free market.

A toy company can out source to a Chinese subcontractor and claim
... it's a free market.

A shoe company can produce its shoes in south east Asia and claim
...it's a free market.

A major bank can incorporate in Bermuda to avoid taxes and claim
... it's a free market.

We can buy HP Printers made in Mexico. We can buy shirts made in
Bangladesh. We can purchase almost anything we want from 20 different
countries.

BUT, heaven help the senior citizens who dare to buy their prescription

drugs from a Canadian or Mexican pharmacy. That's called un-American!

And you think the pharmaceutical companies don't have a powerful lobby?

Think again!

Fully agreed, the way those companies manipulate our acting body of government is disgusting to say the least.

Most representatives I believe are guilty at some point along the way of buying into this BS

Take a look at the stats on how many North Americans are walking around every day on psychotropic drugs. Its pretty scary.



Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

Haha the mandatory immunization schedules prove they have the best lobbyists in the world, not too mention all the untested & approved drugs out there that cause problems. Vioxx anyone? Drugs that are barely tested and no long term results are rushed to the market every day en masse. Fuck them.




A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.
