But my personal favorite is how tens of millions of Americans still take statin drugs, used to lower cholesterol levels, even though the lipid hypothesis, that dietary fat causes heart disease, turned out to be pure BS.

Or didn’t you know that cholesterol is no longer even a “nutrient of concern”?

Let me quite Karl Denninger on that:

I’ll say that the so-called medical establishment willfully and intentionally ignoring contrary evidence on the lipid hypothesis along with what appears to be a bad etiological model for coronary artery disease that has become embedded in what’s sold to you is the true extreme position, much as is someone who claims the Earth is the center of the universe or is only 5,000 years old, despite plenty of contrary evidence that is easily accessible should one care to look, simply because “God” said so.

From the F-35 to drugs, it’s all “keep the problem going so the money keeps flowing”…

The bureaucrats get paid if many citizens are dysfunctional.

If the citizens are not sufficiently dysfunctional due to natural causes, the bureaucrats must stimulate dysfunction.

One way is to hand out addictive drugs to defenseless kids who don’t have the right to refuse them.

Then after the kids turn 18, they become clients of the law-enforcement bureaucrats.

It is a kind of legal speed. Does he not know that?
