Here is their platform http://feduprally.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/2016-Fed-Up-platform_final.pdf
They have scheduled their RALLY for a SUNDAY… guess how many governmental bureaucrats are working on a SUNDAY ?
Also above is the House and Senate calendars.. the House calendar… all 435 House members from Sept 16-19 will be back in their district
According to the Senate calendar… Senate is out of session for the weekend and will be in session for only two weeks – the last two weeks in Sept and then they are IN RECESS until after the Nov 8th election.. There are 34 Senators up for re-election … so when the Senate comes back to work for a total of EIGHT DAYS in Nov and another TWELVE DAYS in Dec… only 64 Senators know that they will be in office for the next Congressional session starting in Jan 2017. Of course the Senate is only going to be in session for 24 days in the LAST THREE MONTHS OF THE YEAR.
Everyone should realize that a Presidential election only comes around every 4 yrs and there aren’t that many times that we don’t have a sitting President running for re-election… like this election.
FED-UP and the rest of the anti-opiate groups should be aware that addiction is a mental health disease and the best way to stop addiction is to do genetic testing on people.. those who have “defective genes” that causes mental health/addiction maybe we should keep them from reproducing. Mental health in our society would be greatly reduced and/or eliminated… and addiction would disappear as well…
Just think of all the healthcare dollars that could save on treating mental health and addiction… and then we wouldn’t have to worry about treating those who suffer from chronic pain with opiates ?

This is a photo op for news reporters stuck in DC. That’s always a cub reporter job…be on hand in case the SECDEF gets ptomaine or something. So, a good way to get on TV, is to hold a rally in DC while no news is going on.
Interesting opportunity, actually, to conduct a counter-protest.
The cause of addiction is more than genetics. It is caused by toxicity which is caused by our lifestyle. If anyone is interested in more information as to how toxicity causes addiction, I have a DVD available explaining it all on my website, http://www.sevenpillarstotalhealth.com.
“Lifestyle” causes “toxicity” causes “addiction”? I read the seven pillars site. It reads like utter quackery. A hypochondriac who imagines she’s about to be sick, might fall for it…the lifestyle imposed by her mental illness of hypochondria would actually create all of her symptoms…but it’s unhelpful to impose this sort of catch-all diagnosis on people whom you’ve never examined or treated. In fact, this is exactly how the racket that calls every patient an addict, does its dirty work.
I, for one, want to see some evidence in support of the contention, that there’s a miraculous way to prevent “addiction” by treating lifestyle-induced “toxicity”. It reads like poppycock and I will reverse my opinion when proof is shown to me.
