"The MASTERS of the government of the United States are the combined capitalists and manufacturers of the United States. It is written over every intimate page of the record of Congress, it is written all through the history of conferences at the White House, that the suggestions of economic policy in this country have come from one source, not from many sources. The benevolent guardians, the kind-hearted trustees who have taken the troubles of government off our hands have become so conspicuous that almost anybody can write out a list of them... The big bankers, the big manufacturers, the big masters of commerce, the heads of railroad corporations... The government of the United States at present is a foster child of the special interests." - Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom, 1913, Doubleday & Co., New York, pp. 57/58

(From the book cover)
Following up his sensational Slaughter of the Innocent, this new exposé by Hans Ruesch shows how with the help of press agentry and the venality of most of the mass media the public has been brainwashed into equating medical care with health, whereas exactly the opposite applies: medicine has become the modern principal cause of disease today.
So, in one year, 1.5 million Americans had to be hospitalized and more than 120,000 died as a consequence of the intake of (prescribed) pharmaceutical drugs that were supposed to cure them of something or other. Another case in point is cancer. The ably-exploited fear of this disease, caused for the most part by products issuing from chemical, industrial and pharmaceutical laboratories, has become a solid-gold source for researchers, drug manufacturers and doctors, who keep foisting their deleterious cut-burn-poison therapies on the frightened patients, most of whom die from the treatment before the cancer can kill them.
Since the cause of most cancers is well-known, they could be avoided by prevention, which early education should provide. And yet, practically no public funds go into prevention because there is no money to be gained by it - only health. The big money is all in the pseudo-scientific "research" done on billions of animals - which can give only false and therefore misleading answers (since man and animal are not the same) - and in the treatment of the patients with the violent, destructive, but immensely lucrative therapies imposed by official medicine.
Certified reports of cancers completely cured by "soft", drugless treatments, usually based on natural diets, mostly various raw foods, have been piling up all over Europe and the U.S. But all the competent and honest doctors who threaten the profits of the lucrative medical trade with inexpensive therapies are being attacked, vilified as "quacks and charlatans and money grubbers", sometimes even barred from the profession, by the quacks and charlatans and money grubbers who make up the profit-oriented Medical Power.
Animal experimentation, inevitably misleading, is of course the alibi that has been devised by this organization for extorting huge grants for a phoney research, and to safeguard the drug and chemical manufacturers from criminal prosecution when the deleterious effects of one or more of their products can no longer be concealed or denied. Then they can always say that "all the prescribed tests" (on animals) had been conscientiously undertaken; but they do not say that they, in collusion with the Health agencies and corrupt or misled politicos, have imposed those tests.
Not more chemicals, but fewer chemicals; not an increase in drugs, but a drastic reduction of drugs; and not a multiplication of animal experiments, but a total abolition of such 'alibi' experiments are the inescapable premises for a betterment of living conditions and an improvement in public health. The present book brings ample proof of this, besides unearthing some information that many powerful individuals in America and abroad would prefer to keep buried forever.
