'I must say that today <br />the biological enemies <br />are microscopic and <br />submicroscopic.....' <br /> <br />However, since we are <br />talking about <br />'weapons of mass destruction' <br />we ought to give credit <br />where credit is due. <br />Our real enemies are <br />the powers that aim to <br />make us dependent, <br />the merchants who try to <br />sell health care as a <br />pro-active entity rather than a <br />'reactive' one. <br /> <br />They offer free examinations <br />and they manipulate <br />long- established laboratory values, <br />all in the name of more profit. <br />They go hunting for potential <br />new patients and persuade them <br />that they need treatment or <br />'preventive' measures. <br /> <br />They deliver 'health care' to <br />the eager, brainwashed consumer <br />like the milkman delivers milk. <br />But they are often empty-handed. <br /> <br />They do not owe you anything <br />but they promise much. <br />Weapons of mass destruction <br />are hard to find in Iraq, <br />in Modern Medicine they are <br />abundant (if cosmetically enhanced) .<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/weapons-of-mass-destruction/
