"In No way do i condone his behavior. He is not someone i'd classify as a good person. He has not represented himself as an individual who understands what it means to protect the people of America Immigrant or not.But he is not the root of all our problems.
The issues of America breakdown to the very fabric of our imagination formed by the powerful entities around us. Around the politics of food. It is an afterthought, an unconscious motion that isn't detected through our daily lives. And as a result it has been slowly eating away at the american people for decades. As we slowly Disintegrate the powers of lobbyists, Big pharma, and the FDA double, triple, quadruple in profits. The Cost of healthcare has soared to $3.5 trillion and 86% of the cost of from treatable chronic disease ( heart disease, some forms of cancers, diabetes etc.)
One of the Strongest forces out there is the meat industry who demonstrated its muscle in 1995. When the USDA proposed implementing new food-safety regulations in response to the devastating Jack in the Box E. coli outbreak that made 700 people sick, the meat industry attempted to delay the implementation of the new regulations by convincing a member of the key appropriations committee to introduce an amendment to stop the rulemaking process. The annual spending on lobbyists to change rules like this reached $4.77 Million as of 2017 and $2.39 Million and climbing in 2018. The $95 billion business has reached its success through confusion of the American Public Much like it did back in the early 1900's when the health status of smoking went up into question. But constantly shoved off by bulletproof marketing schemes. Joseph Lelyveld ( New York Times journalist quoted an unnamed American Cancer Society official who claimed " When the tobacco companies say they're eager to find out the truth, they want you to think the truth isn't known…. They want to be able to call it a controversy". Little Known Fact After 1964 When the link between Cigarettes and cancer made it was to the public big Tobacco companies like Altria took over major food Conglomerates like Kraft, and General Foods . Phillip Morris Who has taken a a share in Jell-O,Oscar Mayer, Post cereals, and Maxwell House.
With Food being Influenced by companies who Bought on health Crisis in the past i think its safe to say that we are dealing a much bigger crisis. Donald trump is a small fish compared to the amount of harm We cause to OURSELVES. Hes bad. but we are our own worst enemy.In the end we need to fear the man in the mirror."
