Homeschoolers Need Not Apply: Ohio Company Announces Hiring Ban on Homeschooled Graduates

Homeschooling remains the preferred method most parents choose to educate, feed, and take care of the health needs of their own children without government intrusion into their private lives. Statistics overwhelmingly show that the majority of home-educated students are far ahead of their peers in matters related to academics, health, and social interaction. Home-educated students are entering our military academies and top universities every year as some of our brightest young people in America. Unfortunately, there is also a renewed effort to bring homeschooled children into government programs, such as the health care system, and the lucrative market of vaccines. As a result, expect more stories like this where clear discrimination against homeschoolers occurs, especially as new "Common Core" national standards are implemented. The Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) remains the nation's number one advocacy group for the rights of homeschooled children and their parents. In the case below, an adult who graduated with a homeschool diploma was initially offered a job, but the offer was subsequently withdrawn simply because the applicant had a homeschool diploma.

Congressman’s Bill Stops Federal Funds for Medical Centers Targeting Kids Like Justina Pelletier

Congressman Steve Stockman will introduce legislation cutting off funds to medical institutions that conduct greater than minimal risk research on wards of the state, deny First Amendment rights to parents and wards of the state, and take children away from their parents over disagreements on subjective diagnoses. Such medical institutions include the National Institute of Health, state agencies, medical facilities, and hospitals. This bill would direct the Inspector General of Health and Human Services to withhold funds from these institutions for the aforementioned reasons. The story of Justina Pelletier, who has mitochondrial disease and was declared a ward of the state over a custody battle regarding a subjective psychotropic drug diagnosis, motivated Congressman Stockman to introduce the legislation.

A Third of Americans Say Government Is Suppressing Access to Natural Cures

While one third of Americans believe the government is suppressing access to natural cures, a new JAMA “study” says they are medical conspiracy kooks who are unscientific and foolish. Are you concerned about government limitations on your access to natural treatments and dietary supplements? Are you alarmed by the safety and integrity of our food system? Do you worry about fluoride in your food supply? According to an article published in JAMA Internal Medicine, a publication of the American Medical Association, you are a head case.

The Vaccine Debate and Suppression of Free Speech in America

There is a raging vaccine debate in America today. Most of those on one side of the debate, however, would like you to simply believe there is no debate. They desperately want you to believe that the issue of vaccines is a settled issue and that there is only room for one side - their side. Sadly, many who believe this want to suppress freedom of speech and not allow the other side of the debate to be heard. This is called tyranny and it is something the founding fathers of the United States of America fought hard to prevent. The debate over vaccines is not new. The debate has existed for the entire history of vaccines, ever since the first vaccine was brought to market. That is because ever since vaccines were developed and marketed, there have always been vaccine-injured children and people, including deaths, and therefore people who have opposed vaccines. Those few who have dared to report on the other side of the vaccine debate in the mainstream media have put their careers on the line. Now, even simple stay-at-home mom bloggers are being targeted and threatened in an effort to suppress free speech regarding vaccines.

Pfizer Tracking Unvaccinated Children Through Health Insurance

If you are a parent who has made the decision not to vaccinate your child Big Pharma knows, according to a postcard sent in by a Next News viewer. In the notice mailed by Pfizer Inc. they indicate that they possess "records that your child may not have received a recommended vaccine." The postcard reminds the parents to contact their health provider to schedule an appointment. Pfizer also indicates that they've paid for the mailing on behalf of "your child's health plan, health clinic, or health department." We deduct that if your insurance company or health coverage provider doesn't receive a bill from your child's pediatrician for a vaccination your child's health profile is flagged and the post card is mailed from their database. With Obamacare slowly coming online and individual state departments of Child Services performing more lethal kidnappings nationwide it is not a stretch to believe that the same records could be used against parents for states to claim that a parents freedom of choice is child neglect.

Medical System and Child Protective Services Run Amok: FDA Denies Hope for Dying Kids

The FDA is condemning children to death by refusing to allow them access to experimental cancer treatments, even though it has the authority to grant such access to terminal patients who have not responded to conventional treatment. Six years ago, 10-year-old Braiden was enrolled in a clinical trial for his incurable brain tumor. The “experimental” drug Antineoplaston (ANP) was the sole treating agent. He went into full remission, and suffered no toxic side effects. An MRI recently revealed Braiden’s tumor has reoccurred. The FDA is now refusing to allow Braiden to go back on ANP even though the treatment has already proven its efficacy through his previous remission. Many other terminal patients are also being prevented from accessing ANP.

Woman Confined by Force to Psychiatric Ward for Praying and Fasting

The use of psychiatry to "diagnose" people with "mental" illnesses and restrain them against their will in psychiatric wards is not new. Unfortunately, such stories are becoming much more common in the present-day USA. Justina Pelletier's story, for example, is gaining national attention even in the mainstream media right now. This 15-year-old girl has been confined to psychiatric care against her desire and the desires of her parents for over a year now. Psychiatry is not a medical science based on biology. There are no laboratory tests that can detect "mental disease." All mental illnesses are defined by psychiatrists according to behaviors and then voted on to be included in their "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" (DSM). The latest version, version 5 (DSM5) was published last year and is very controversial. New "disorders" are added with each revision, making it legal to prescribe dangerous and addictive drugs for these published mental diseases. This week the Courthouse News Service has published a news release regarding a case filed in court where a 56-year-old woman was forcibly confined to a psychiatric ward against her will for praying and fasting. Medical tyranny is alive and widely practiced in the U.S. today. And there are signs that the role of psychiatrists will increase under Obamacare.

FDA’s Sneak Attempt to Ban Another Vitamin

You can’t live without this vitamin. But the FDA wants to reserve the natural form for monopoly drug companies, leaving only the synthetic form for supplements. The FDA has just released a new 109-page guidance on the revision of nutrition and supplement labels. On page 69, the agency slipped in two little paragraphs that could risk the health of millions of people who desperately need folate. It’s a sneak attack so quiet and unobtrusive that few people will even realize it’s there.

Government Attack Against Homeschoolers Takes Unexpected Turn

On Monday the sober news that the Supreme Court was not going to take up the German homeschool family case brought cries of anger all across the Internet. The Romeike family had originally been granted asylum in the United States when German authorities had threatened to seize their children for simply homeschooling them. But last year, for some reason the Obama administration decided to challenge the asylum and seek to deport this homeschooling family back to Germany. As of Monday, it seemed like the hope of keeping Romeike family here in the U.S. was gone. But in a sudden reversal that was never expected, the Homeland Security department contacted Home School Legal Defense (HSLDA) and informed them that they were not going to pursue having the Romeikes deported. This case drew national attention and it is possible that in an election year this became too hot of an issue for the Obama administration. We have HSLDA to thank for keeping pressure on the government's attacks on homeschoolers. Earlier this year HSLDA opposed the U.S. Department of Education's attempt to collect data from homeschoolers who move from one state to another.

Big Pharma’s War on Supplements

Why are the attacks on supplements becoming so loud? By now anyone not living in a cave has heard the message from the mainstream media and Big Pharma loud and clear: don’t use supplements. Either they are a harmless waste of money, or they’re a harmful threat to your health (note that these points are contradictory). This message has been repeated over and over both in journals and in conventional media outlets. It is, with very few exceptions, junk science. Even in the few instances when it is right, it is wrong. AMA-helmed medical journals twist nutritional science and the mainstream media gobbles it up. Both are financially supported by Big Pharma. It’s not surprising that “leading” medical journals and doctors continue to argue against natural alternatives to pharmaceutical drugs—they’re even more drug and drug money-dependent than even the average American.
