  • @TatalVost So if u had a headache &someone gave u willow bark, u would laugh in their face. Yet if someone messed around with it in a lab, produced a white pill served in a box & labelled it "aspirin" u would thank them.

    & yet aspirin is far worse for the body than natural willow bark.

    Only an idiot slates something they dont understand. Even the pharmaceutical giants know the benefits of nature's medicines. They use them. They lobbied the EU to wipe out the competition, not to protect us!

  • @Moissenjeff me too man, me too.

  • I think I am in love with this guy

  • Modern chemical medicine has an important role to play, especially in emergency situations, but in general I prefer safe and gentler herbal remedies proven effective over thousands of years of use throughout the world. We should resist all attempts by big business and big government to limit freedom of choice by growing our own herbs and learning to use our own judgement for a change.

  • You know what they call alternative medicine that works?

    MEDICINE.

  • 101% Fuck EU

  • I think homeopathy and other "alternative" medicines are bullshit. However, I also believe that if somebody wants to use such things, they should be free to do so. And in a free market, I could chose a health insurance policy that doesn't include these things but favors real medicine.

  • SMASH THE EUROPEAN UNION!

  • So - freaking - true.

    This is the problem with big government, they become the main aim of massive corporatist lobbies, where they have the biggest effect, in ALL of europe goddamn. Pure freaking corruption.

  • @davidwcooney The Lisbon treety defines the EU as an unelected dictatership I like to see Nigel Farage saying it as it is Eye watering that we have allowed such severely derranged minds to wreck our planet along with everything that lives and breath's

  • @lordlicious thans ill watch that , was looking at anews report about the Romanian witches cursing their government for imposing a tax on them. the gov took it seriously enough to wear purple on thursdays
