We often read food labels before purchasing food products. We do this because we care about the health and safety of our families. What about the drugs in our medicine cabinets? Millions of Americans are taking drugs made in China that lack the Food and Drug Administration safety inspections we take for granted in America. Joining me today to discuss this critical issue is Rosemary Gibson, a senior advisor with the Hastings Center, a bio-ethics research institute. Gibson and Janardan P. Singh are co-authors of China RX: Exposing the Risks of America’s Dependence on China for Medicine.

How do you unsee what you’ve seen? Impossible really. The lasting impact of war on our veterans has a traumatic affect on every aspect of their lives; for the duration of their lives. Consider that our veterans are waiting months and even years for basic health care. The VA Appeals process takes minimum 2-5 years; in the mean time many of these veterans die while waiting. Veterans are living paycheck to paycheck. Many are disabled, have PTSD, and suicidal tendencies. The suicide rate among our veterans is an absolute crisis! Homelessness amongst veterans is at a record pace. “They have slipped through the cracks. Our government has done a very poor job of taking care of them,” explains Gretchen Smith, Founder of the Code of Vets. That would explain why PTSD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, is destroying lives at record numbers. When Danny E. Smiley, US Army Airborne Infantry Sgt., returned home from war, he revealed something profound when he said, “Part of my humanity stayed in the jungle”. Sgt. Smiley’s story is one for the ages. It is a story of sacrifice, courage, grace and humility. Growing up, Gretchen Smith and her two brothers were able to see firsthand the destruction that war had on their […]
This is not the first time we’ve been at a stalemate in America. We have been down this road before. It seems we always bounce back though – what about this time? Are the details any different this time around, or is this ‘swamp business’ as usual? Where is the tipping point? When do we go so far away from our fundamental constitutional principles that the establishment of our Republic is in jeopardy? Are we already there? Is it a few years away? Is the enticement of free stuff from a benevolent government the catnip of society? Why can’t our politicians sit down in a grown-up meeting and work out the problems as we once did for over 200 years? How did we go from communicating in adversarial dialogue to resist and blockade? MORE VIEWPOINT THE NEWS MAGAZINE Are the divisions within government and our country the result of our founders design; after all the Constitution was the result of trying to satisfy the desires and needs of many different factions; small states, large states, different religious groups, northern and southern colonies? Have we deviated so far from this original design? I’ve been thinking and talking about this divided government business […]
In 2018 more American Law Enforcement Officers took their own lives by suicide than were killed in the line of duty. Why?

In the year 1948 English author George Orwell wrote of a future time, the year 1984 when most of the world’s population had become victims of perpetual war, omnipresent government, continuous surveillance, and propaganda. How different is our world of 2019 from Orwell’s novel? The phrase that most people remember from the Orwell novel is “Big Brother Is Watching” today it’s the question ”Has Facebook sold my confidential information to the highest bidder”. In all of his novels, Orwell conveys a fear of losing individual freedom to an increasingly oppressive modern society. In each novel, the protagonist’s attempt to escape ends in failure. Is the idea of privacy in a 21st-century world a concept that is no longer relevant? Has technology and our willingness to use it eliminated privacy? — Cameras on every corner in every building every roadway airport eliminated privacy as a trade-off for security? Why are we so willing to accept this? Has technology created a propaganda society where a single message is relayed 24/7 in singularity of content? What are the effects of propaganda on our lives? And then there is the subject of WAR. Why do we wage war? Is it for nationalism as some say today? Is it economic? […]

It would seem from the scientific evidence that two things are going to happen, one the planet’s orbital mechanics will change over time and second the sun is going to grow. The big question is: Can man do anything to change either of these events from happening? In 4 billion years the Earth will be consumed by a giant red star sun and reduced to a burnt cinder no matter what Al Gore says! Should we be more worried about planning a new home for man somewhere out of the solar system or too much exhaust from your Honda Accord? Is Climate Change Fact or Fiction? Is climate change inevitable and can man really do anything about it? This is one of the most misunderstood topics, and one that the media takes out of context on a daily basis. The politicization of climate change and the recent IPCC report are front and center. You must ask yourself – why did America pull out of the Paris Agreement? Why did they stand alone? Did President Trump make the right decision? Tom Wysmuller worked in the Apollo NASA era and lectures on Space Program and Climate Issues all over the world. He […]

We are seeing some pretty radical changes to the American way of life. Is it progress OR is it transformation by indoctrination? We know the education system has become the breeding-ground for this transformation, but what about the entertainment industry and the media – what kind of impact are they having? Has this transformation hijacked our educational system and media? The latest findings from the Pew Research Center have the US in 38th place out of 71 countries when it comes to math scores and 24th place when it comes to science. The US now ranks 27th in the world for its levels of healthcare and education, according to a new study. This represents a significant decline from 1990, when it ranked sixth.
