Sometimes, the pendulum swings too far to one side creating an imbalance in the way of things. So it is between the well established and powerful companies that manufacture and market prescription drugs and those who remember the old ways of natural healing or have rediscovered them. The powerful have become too powerful.

Therefore in one camp is the power of the mechanists, those who manufacture drugs in laboratories. Perhaps, as some rumours would have it, they work a bit too closely with government agencies. These agencies should be non-biased, but it appears that they may be compromised. With such power, these companies, can spend huge amounts of money on research and get things approved that some may argue should not be approved. To make up for these research costs, they overcharge consumers with outrageious prices. They always seem to rack up major profits.

As the counterpoint to this alleged tragedy, the vitalists persist. Despite efforts to obliterate them, the old ways, old remedies, old books, old lore is still passed down. In fact, many of the so called ‘modern’ ways are simply synthetic copies of isolated ‘active ingredients’ found in nature, mostly in plants.

As a result of this crazy power structure, the every day remedies that grow in the desert or the forest or maybe even one’s own backyard can’t get the coveted government stamp of approval as a substance that really works. These natural ways may not even have the long list of side effects that today’s pharmaceuticals may have. It’s a bit ironic when you think about it. On the other hand, mother nature was there long before the current government / corporation power structure that we know today. It seems that mother nature will be there long after the status quo disappears too. Mother nature never needed government approval. But even today, mankind and governments need mother nature.

The tighter the grip becomes the more slips through the fingers. The balance of power is definitely too far to one side. Yet, what is happening on the other side? Old books, alternative healers, folk wisdome, old remedies, oral traditions are all still there,even if they have been forced underground. But they must emerge. As the current greedy power structure gets more greedy, more people will be forced to turn to alternatives, simply because they cannot afford what has been forced upon them any longer. Today, the cost of treatment is growing beyond the capabilites of the average person.

For some people who care naught for all this nonsense about power structures, never have and never will, they only know that they have simple things that work, don’t stress the body with strong side effects, and don’t cost anything to speak of. If you are not a ‘person of means’, which path would you choose?
