The People’s Manifesto – Part Ten

by Steve Cook

It is a criminal act for a government to poison or aid and abet the poisoning of its own citizens.

This principle shall be enshrined in law, with stiff penalties for its violation.

Accordingly we shall enact the following measures, described here only in broad terms.

All GMOs will be phased out of food production and eventually banned until such a time they are PROVEN SAFE beyond all doubt.

Although criminal law works on the sane principle that a person is innocent until PROVEN guilty, this principle does not work when applied to food, medicines and indeed any product. If you treat a product as safe until proven unsafe, you open the  door to harming many people. In the case of products, they must be treated as unsafe until PROVEN innocent.

The presentation or marketing of a product as safe when it is not safe through shoddy, negligent  or scientifically unsound research, or omission or misrepresentation of facts shall be a punishable offence on the part of  INDIVIDUAL PERSONS found by police investigation to  have instigated, ordered or aided and abetted the misrepresentation. Where the misrepresentation is shown by criminal investigation to have resulted in injury and death those culpable shall be liable to charges of manslaughter and murder.

It should be stressed that there is no intention here to punish honest mistakes unless that mistake is, once known, not acted upon or is covered up. The government can help the People by removing criminality whilst at the same time encouraging due diligence and a responsible attitude regarding the wellbeing of others.

We shall also set up a (provisionally titled) Scientific Claims Verification Inspectorate (SCVI) whose job it shall be to monitor and verify all scientific claims and the research leading to those claims against rigorous, clear criteria for acceptable standards of scientific method and honesty.

No research claims shall be permitted to be published in the guise of science unless they have first received the SCVI seal of approval. Anything not having received that verification may not be presented as science and MUST be clearly presented as opinion. Should it be found that a person or group are deliberately doctoring or falsifying results so as to mislead, this shall be treated as a suspected criminal offence and passed  to the police for investigation.

The principle here is that the government can help the consumer make up his or her own mind about claims for any product by bringing about the confidence that when something is presented as scientific, it truly is scientific and not a shadow or mimicry thereof.

It is worth mentioning here (and I’ll address it more fully later) that all regulatory bodies monitoring any industry or activity on behalf of the people MUST be solely funded by the People through their appointed government. It shall be illegal for any regulatory body or the officials or employees thereof to receive any funding, payments, gifts or inducements from any source other than the government. And of course the principles of written submission covered earlier and thruthful accounting shall apply.

Similarly the use of environmentally devastating glyphosate shall be phased out as quickly as possible. As there is no wish to ruin farmers or give them a harder time than they are already having, they will be helped to make the transition by grants and interest-free and low-interest loans as much as possible. Financial help for farmers and rewarding the transition to healthy and environmentally-friendly practices will be covered in more detail in  a subsequent essay. However the use of glyphosate in gardens, allotments and so forth and the retail sale of products containing glyphosate shall be immediately banned.

Similarly an investigation shall be set up (subject to the rules of written submission and honest accounting mentioned above) to study the use of agricultural chemicals, identify those that are too toxic and should be discontinued as well as finding, promoting and educating people on viable, safe alternatives.

Similarly, all psychotropic drugs will be phased out and banned and only those medications PROVEN NOT TO HARM the user permitted. The most urgent point of address shall be the drugging of children.

As touched upon earlier, the producers of foods, drinks, drugs and medicines shall be required to satisfy the SCVI and shall also be criminally liable for any harms their products do due to negligence or deception.

There are of course many products that are popular with consumers (such as alcohol, soft drinks, sugary cakes and confectionary for instance) and there is no intention whatever to ban these. However, the goal will be to ensure that the labelling of all such products is clear and honest so that the consumer knows exactly what he or she is consuming and can make a thoroughly informed choice.

And there is another principle here, that of PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY which I will discuss more fully later. Under this principle if (say) a medicine is sold that causes injury or death, the individual persons (directors, major shareholders etc) who ordered or approved its marketing and sale shall be held accountable and if when investigated are found to have been devious, dishonest or reckless, subject to prosecution. The role played by government here is to encourage a high level of personal responsibility and honesty towards one’s fellows and  bring about food and drug industries worthy of consumer trust and able to operate with pride and self respect.

Similarly, the practice of excessive vaccination shall be phased out and only vaccines PROVEN NOT TO HARM the user shall be permitted. More on this topic – and a full investigation into it – later.

Compulsory vaccination shall be banned. If a vaccine protects one against a disease, then the person who is vaccinated is not longer in danger from that disease and those who chose to not be vaccinated do so  at their own risk, as is their right. If the vaccine does not protect one against the disease then there is no point in taking it anyway, although people should be free to take it if they wish as is their right. However it is the duty of government to ensure that the consumer makes a thoroughly and accurately informed choice.

It shall be the emphasis of government to encourage, foster and support PREVENTATIVE measures to safeguard, promote and improve the health of the citizenry, such as (but not necessarily limited to) good nutrition, exercise, fresh air and natural remedies, plus providing in schools a basic education on nutrition. This is a duty very neglected by governments until now, a neglect that has shortened or impaired the lives of untold millions. It is time for that iniquity to end.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
