Q«ji. o ' I WILLIAM half DATVETO OlIF CLEARANCE PRICE Price , __ * ■ t Pharmoucflfly flow Cor: QQ k 11-22-16 U HOW CORRUPT DEALS AND MISGUIDED MEDICAL REGULATIONS ARE BANKRUPTING AMERICA —AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT documents why healthcare costs so much and provides prac¬ tical solutions Congress can implement to save this country from economic collapse. Implementing the free-market approaches advocated in this book can spare Medicare and Medicaid from insolvency while signifi¬ cantly improving the health and productivity of the American public. This book provides a rational basis for removing the suffocating compulsory aspect of healthcare regulation and allowing free- market forces to compete against govern¬ ment-sanctioned medicine. More importantly, Pharmocracy will empower the citizenry to inundate Congress with a unified demand to tear down corrupt regulations that are bankrupting the United States. Readers will be shocked to learn how today’s bureaucratic stranglehold ruthlessly denies human beings access to lifesaving medical technologies. T here’s an entire world of reliable research-based scien¬ tific information about preventing illness and treating disease with safe natural substances—vitamins, miner¬ als, botanicals, and other things—that’s being deliberately hidden from you! If you prefer patent medicines (“pharma¬ ceuticals”), you are also being deliberately prevented from accessing them at the very best prices. No, I’m not kidding or exaggerating at all. If all of this information were made freely available, and barriers to access were eliminated, the cost of healthcare would drop dramatically within just a few years, and both as individuals and a nation, we’d be much healthier with much less expense. Bill Faloon’s Pharmocracy details exactly why this enor¬ mous amount of information is being withheld, and describes precisely how it is being done, despite our Con¬ stitutional guarantee of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. He writes about the “barriers to access” to less expensive patent medicines (“pharmaceuticals”). Please read this book if you want to know why—despite miracle surgeries and diagnostic techniques—American healthcare is much more costly and less effective than it could be if we truly had freedom of choice, freedom of information and freedom of access here in these United States of America. Pharmocracy doesn’t just detail these problems, it gives us the solutions. If you want access to this vast amount of reliable information and less expensive treatments that will help you and your family stay as healthy as you can as long as you can, please read this book and take action! Together we can get it done. Jonathan V.

Due to various accounting gimmicks employed by Congress and federal agencies, there are considerable fluctuations from year to year, such as whether Medicare's true unfunded liability is $24.6 or $37 trillion. Likewise, the prices of prescription drugs rapidly change, so drug costs stated in this book may be higher or lower at any given time in the future. The author has striven to pres¬ ent an accurate picture of this financial situation based on available informa¬ tion, but inconsistencies in reporting and varying interpretations have created a potentially large margin of error.
