Options In Health Care -- Emergency Alert!  PLEASE HELP


70 year old Dr. Hulda Clark, PhD, N.D. has been arrested and is being held
in a federal facility in San Diego, CA, awaiting extradition to Brown
County, Indiana.  She has been charged with practicing medicine without a
license by the District Attorney's office of her former place of residence. 

Dr. Clark, best known for her books The Cure For All Cancers and The Cure
For All Diseases, as well as for her invention of the "Zapper," has been a
public figure intently dedicated to spreading knowledge of healing
techniques, and going against conventional medicine's monopoly on health
care.  

Her arrest is an example and a warning to all Americans of the problem we
collectively face: a health care system with few real options for treatment,
fueled by greed, and fraught with criminality.  There is increasing evidence
of systematic suppression of alternative therapies that threaten the
interests of conventional medicine. 

There is an underground railroad of people in this country who have
dedicated their lives to health and healing, and to the fight for freedom
for real options in health care.  Increasingly, these people who are in
truth trying to help people, are being persecuted by a system which
arbitrarily decides what is effective and legal treatment.  These decisions
often seem to be based on what is clearly profitable, as in pharmaceutical
companies and their drugs, rather than what may be the most beneficial. 

More and more people in this country are becoming highly disillusioned with
our health care system, and for very valid reasons.  It is not enough to
await slow and cumbersome legislation on the national level, which is
unlikely to address the real issues.  Dr. Clark's troubles represent but a
small part of a gross problem in this country, and bring us to a higher
platform.  It is time to ask the most pertinent questions.

What constitutes healing? Who is deciding what constitutes healing and what
are they basing their decisions on?  Why do we have so few real options in
health care?  Why are people who are going against the grain, and trying to
establish footing in alternative rather than conventional medicine, more and
more often finding themselves in trouble?  Why are herbal supplement
companies faced with regulation by the FDA that puts a stranglehold on their
industry?  Why are people who are selling health products on the Internet
increasingly being investigated?

What organizations are being formed by our government to enforce strict,
impossible and arbitrary regulations, and to ensure a monopoly on health
care? (If you have any information regarding this issue please write asap). 

WE NEED YOUR HELP.  If you are familiar with Dr. Clark's work, and would
like to support us in her defense, please stand by.  We will need as many
letters and phone calls as possible.  We are awaiting specific information
regarding her case.  If you have benefited from her work, we need your
story.  If you know anyone who has, we need to hear from them.

If you feel you are being unfairly attacked or investigated for your work in
health care, and are willing to share your story, please write.  If you have
any information or evidence suggesting unethical connections between the FDA
and pharmaceutical companies, please write.  If you work in the health care
or herbal supplement industry, and are facing regulations that would
effectively stifle your work, please write.  

If you have stories, regarding successful treatment by suppressed therapies,
please write. If you can contribute in any way possible to a collective
fight to increase our freedom in health care, please do!

This is a very complex and difficult situation we find ourselves in. 
Clearly regulation is needed in the medical field; patient's rights include
not only the right to options in health care, but the right to safe and
effective treatments.  However, our medical system is based on PROFIT, not
on HEALING.  It is not profitable (for drug companies, HMO's and hospitals)
to endorse and develop therapies which support healthy bodies and immune
systems.

If we are to see FUNDAMENTAL changes in this system, we must address these
fundamental issues.

It is time to end years of silence, and to stand up for our right to options
in health care, and for our right to an ethical, sensible system geared
toward true healing.

Please join us now, in whatever capacity you can.
