&lt;p&gt;China EXECUTED their equivalent of the head of their FDA for misconduct.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here in the US we just excute the patients.&lt;/p&gt;

I sure don't. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After reading many articles here, and especially _Seeds of Deception_ by Jeffrey Smith, it's pretty clear that the FDA has become a revolving door, or a step up the corporate ladder, for Monsanto employees.....they leave Monsanto, go to work at the FDA just long enough to get the next toxic product approved, then return to a bigger and better job at Monsanto, reward for a &amp;quot;job well done.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyone who believes they can trust the FDA probably also believes the sun revolves around the earth (another of the stories in today's newsletter). &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am new to this community but have been following the newsletters and articles for a few years now, and am campaigning through my online shop against aspartame use in the UK (there is a petition on the Downing St website too).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does anyone know if this scare regarding heparin is applicable to heparin in the UK? And if any effects could be long term and not apparent in the short term?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had to inject heparin daily during 2 of my 3 pregnancies and also on various occasions in the last 12 years when I was more suseptible to having a blood clot, eg when having operations, etc. This is because I had a clot on my lung at 22years old, when I also received 3 weeks of continuous high-dosage heparin administration.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am worried that all this heparin I have had, and also that my children have been subject to before birth, may have underlying effects that may not be apparent yet??&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Confused &amp;amp; Worried........&lt;/p&gt;

Go to their site at www.fda.gov. You will find their budget under Hot Topics on the right side of the page. It's public information.&lt;br&gt;It's disturbing to me to know that they conduct campaigns of terror initiated against natural healers, &lt;br&gt;nutritional supplement companies and other organizations - dressing themselves in full armor and wielding weapons! What do they expect? Being attacked by a bottle of vitamins?&lt;br&gt;A few years ago, they closed one of MY favorite stores.
