- The one sided, allopath-etic approach in this program. As if street drugs do the most damage and cause the most deaths. It is a proven fact that petro-chemical pharmaceuticals kill "over 100,000 people/ year!! Street drugs less than 10,000! So Why the one sided, and I dare say, stereotypical approach of this program? Bill Moyer and his connections to the Tri-lat-Commission/CFR. A"subversion to Science and Public Service" as Congressional Subcommittee on Oversights and Investigations Conclusion was on the H.I.[D.]V./[A.]I.[D.]S.Fraud THE INVESTIGATION/public record uncovered, as well as, to Real Education.
