The truth is being hidden from the people. I would like to ponder the greater questions but I cannot stop the thoughts that tell me our entire existence is a farce. Oil is no longer needed, they can easily make an alternative vehicle. Medicines are derived from natural materials yet those materials are kept from us. I am ready for war. I do not want anarchy I want truth. How can wewake the people from their slumbers? How can we take back control from the liars who keep us ignorant?

They're not keeping you "ignorant" (you're doing a fine job of that all by yourself), they're being good scientists. A good scientist requires proof -- repeatable, objective proof -- of a premise before he accepts it. Doctors are doing just what they should do, not accepting "alternative medicine" claims without proof.
And the fact is, for the vast majority of "alternative medicine" remedies, there is proof: proof that they do NOT work. A number of accurate, controlled scientific studies have shown that these products and techniques do not work as claimed. Echinacea is a good example -- there have been at least 20 quality studies that show it does absolutely nothing beneficial, yet millions of people still buy it and use it. Now who's ignorant?
Just because there is anecdotal evidence for something (i.e. somebody tells you, "it worked great for me!") or that there are legends about its usefulness doesn't make it so. Wishing something was a magic cure for disease doesn't make it so. Testable, repeatable results that show exactly what the substance or technique does are the only reliable evidence of usefulness or non-usefulness. Alternative medicine sellers, none of which currently have to have their "magic formulas" tested scientifically to be able to sell them, just *love* people like you, who aren't sceptical and who will believe outrageous claims without any proof. You keep them in business.

I think you need a dose of nice soothing herbal pseudo-medicine to calm you down. You should be able to prescribe it for yourself since you know more than the people who have studied real medicine.
Doctors are not saying they don't trust alternative medicines - if you listened you would realize they are saying they want some proof that they work before everyone runs out and spends money on something that has never been seen to really cure anything.

If we all did the holistic method the doctors would be out of business . If we used alternative fuel our government would all but fold . That's part of my story and I'm sticking to it .

One answer my friend....Money. If we all could use herbs we wouldn't need to go to the Doctor which means no money for doctors and drug companies.

You cant patent natural things. You simulate them synthetically and patent it.
