Same time, suppressing info, and education about homeo and naturophathic
cures. We are dealing with approx 300,000,000 people in USA. Compared to
30,000,000. Where do you see the incentive for $$$$$$? Canada has OHIP,
Fed supplemented health care. Does the USA have this? This means Gov't
has to pay for prescriptions not the consumer. This may change in the
coming future as changes to this have already been implemented. Like
anything else, there will not be a complete abolition of pharmaceuticals
and gov't regulation. However, it is out of control and there has to be
a balance maintained. It's all about balance. Being aggressive doesn't
necessarily create permanent change. The struggle between "Good and
Evil" is always present. Good always prevails. It is said. "life is a
game" so is this..so we must learn how to play it. :-)

I tried hard here in Canada to get people to pay attention, but they did
not
see any problem as the government here put it in increments with the
less
used things gotten rid of first but the law is passed and most of the
people
here have NO clue.

I think that American lately seem to have gotten more complacent (more
like
Canadians) that have a 90/10% complacency to activist and informed
people.
In former times Canadians where more 80/20  and I think American were
more
70/30 and more informed.  I think lately they have sunk to the 90/10
:o(((
and are much more fearful and with the government using fear to control
them
more.  Unless people see that fear takes away their freedom and that
with
freedom comes responsibilities one of the biggest is to be informed.  It
is
a sad day that both our countries veterans fought for freedom and the
masses
give it up with out even knowing that is what they are doing by
complacency
and being uninformed.

I believe Codex is also to get rid of the small producers of herbs and
vitamins (the new testing laws will see to that) the price will go up
and
the potencies way down.

As for the prescriptions you will see them so rarely as the doctors are
not
trained to use vitamins to treat illness and so that will be the end of
high
dose vitamins.  So people needing more will have to buy more vitamins
and so
either way they will get more money for the herbs and vitamins and the
reason I see the big companies getting into the herb and vitamin
business.
THERE is going to be a lot more money in it and the competition a lot
less
:o(((

Say good buy as well to the local health food store because they will
not be
able to carry the supplements they used to.  My local one has tried for
years to sell it and no one will buy it because of the coming problems.

Bear in mind that the supplement industry is almost as big and powerful
as
the prescription drug industry complete with lobbyists and lawyers.
It'll be a heck of a special interest fight.

..mostly about labeling I think.

The Codex is not speculation.  At present, there is no way to stop it.
