BrasscheckTV: Robber Barron Medicine‏

In the 19th century, cartels in oil,
steel, and other industries amassed
fantastic wealth. 
 
In the 20th century, they used this
wealth and power to take over journalism, 
academia and medicine .
 
Now, in the 21 century, most people 
have amnesia about how we got to where
we are. Time to wake up. 

 Robber barron medicine
Designed for profit, not for health

 

 From the Corbett Report
Competition is a sin. - John D. Rockefeller

The robber barrons of the 19th century believed in one thing above all: monopoly control.

In the field of medicine, that has meant the creation of the monstrosity we know as modern medicine.

The system they funded at the dawn of the 20th century is a fantastic vehicle for making money and a terrible system for promoting healthy living and developing simple and healthy methods for treating ailments.
