Life is about choice. What we eat, what we read, who we elect; every day we make choices that determine how we want to live. But what if these choices are just an illusion? In an era where regulations and red tape rule every industry, where lobby groups and big business wield more influence than ever before, our daily choices have become increasingly limited. Focusing on key areas such as food, medicine, finance, and media, Freedom From Choice provides viewers with a glimpse at the myriad of ways their lives are being dictated, and tells us who stands to gain.
Director: Tim Delmastro
Full Documentary
Original Title: Freedom from Choice (2014)
"Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I'll tell you what they don’t want: They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that." - George Carlin Carlin's specials always resonated with me, but this bit always stood out to me.
I hope people recognize "they" is not just government generally. Government is just a tool. The US government is and has been for its entire existence a tool for the rich. Democratize the workplace, the economy, and the government becomes a tool for the people.
Never heard of him, but he nailed it. Nothing has changed, we’re exactly where they want us.

@@iiihhh7257oh, how sad you don’t know George Carlin. Definitely google him. Funny, brilliant!
George Carlin, one of mankind's greatest geniuses. Who could also make you laugh :)
Why is lobbying even legal? Isn't it just another word for "corruption"?. Love your documentary! Live to serve life, not hijacked narratives.
The idea is that representatives can't know everything, so people should be able to tell them about their problems and what they think would fix them. The more people are affected, the more lobbying power they'd have... except that few people with lots of money can have much more influence than LOTS of people who aren't millionaires/companies
lobbying is just legal bribery. yes its corruption, but its allowed... because those that make the rules don't have to follow them.
The difference between lobbying and bribery is that one is legal while the other is not. It shouldn't be legal at all because it rewards corruption, class discrimination and consolidation of power.
It’s called bribery in other countries.
Lobbying is corruption. It is legal, because those who make the laws profit from it.
When I was a kid, we drank raw milk all the time, sometimes while we were milking the cows by hand. We had about 500 chickens and if we came across an egg with a embryo in it, we just gave it to the cats. We still drink raw, untreated water from our 130 year old hand dug well. Had a bucket with a tin cup hanging on its side for drinking water. Everyone drank from that bucket using the same cup. We carried all of our water until 1966, had a two holer out north of the house and 3 wood stoves for heat on the ground floor. Got so cold frost formed on the inside of the windows but didn't matter as snug in a goose down mattress. Big garden, had credit at the grocery store where we traded eggs and meat for necessary items. By modern standards, were poor as dirt but didn't know it. Everyday life was never boring as it had purpose.
THANK YOU.BINGO🎉😂❤.😊
Sounds likes paradise!
@@lesleyburgon it was
Now they don't want you to have a purpose, just be under their control
Peter Schiff makes me nauseas, it’s not “regulations” that are the probłem, it’s the billionaíres/corporations that are pulling the strings that are the real problem. It’s corporate greed buying out our politicians, lack of actual oversight and real accountability that’s also the problem.
No, it's the ones on capital hill who let corporate money control them. Corporations wouldn't have any power if "they" wouldn't be bought. The ones on capital hill don't work for us. Corporations welcome regulations because they destroy their competitors which are typically small business owners. This all contributes to the corporatocracy that is the United States. We send weaponry to Ukraine and Israel without a second thought because "they" have to keep defense contractors happy.
Lobbying is absolutely another word for corruption. Politicians should be held personally accountable for their failed decisions.
Agreed.
public (opinion) is also an interest group that does its lobbying
@@liborsupcik7195 But rarely acted on by "they".
In the country where I was born, lobbying is illegal... So guess what, it gets WORST, because nobody disclose who is their real master. Keep it legal. At least that way I can follow the money and see who I'm voting in or out.
@@doingisking8814 It's a mixed bag. None of us can afford to compete with Big Pharma or the petroleum industry when it comes to buying influence with politicians.
What's truly frightening: there is no shortage of men and women who would happily enforce unjust laws with zeal.

Greenblatt. Wexner. Also Hindu Nationalists Tulsi, Haley, Hirsi, DeSouza. Kavanaugh, Barret, Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito, Sotomayor, Kennedy: 7/9 members of the Supreme Court are Catholic, with the remaining 2 training at Jesuit Schools like Georgetown Barr, Cippolone, Gore, Guiliani, and Leonard Leo are all Opus Dei, Trump trained alongside Epstein and Roger Stone under Roy Cohn, who admitted to trafficking kids for the purposes of blackmailing politicians on behalf of Mossad. Cohn trained under Meyer Lansky, who trained under Hoover. They make up 33% of the Senate, but only 22% of the population. Robert Mercer and Rupert Murdoch are both Knights of Malta. Rogan and Crowder associate Brian Callen also has ties to the CIA, and is the co founder of _Diligence,_ a spook foundation connected to the CIA and israel, just as Bannon was the CEO of Breitbart, an israeli publication. Elon's friend Peter Theil owns Palantir, a data mining company that worked on Project Lifelog for the Pentagon. Theil was also Facebook's first investor a year after Lifelog shut down, turning a "lucky" $100k into $5 billion plus, hiding it all in a ROTH fund. He also sits on FBs board of Directors. Both KZhead and Facebook use algorithms and bots to boost right wing content. 70% of all social media is bots. The Paypal Mafia is also behind Bitcoin and Etherium, a dark money laundering scheme based on Pennystock scams run by Mafia in the past. Facebook was just fined $1.2 Billion in the EU for breaching user privacy when it sold user data to Cambridge Analytica, an israeli Psy op company that offered to blackmail left wing politicians in the UK using underage girls, and utilised data mining, just as Epstein associate Robert Mercer, a Knight of Malta, who also uses _Psychographics_ to streamline right wing messaging. Psy Ops is an israeli export, they even use obscure Orwellian names to hide; like Donor Group, Psy Group, The International Democratic Union, Citizen's United, Mother's for Liberty, Veritas, Vox, Vice, and The Federalist Society. You can learn to recognise these Greco Roman taglines everywhere. They also all have the same routine as Tate, a popular guru; Mr "Joe Average", with the keys to Nirvana, wealth, and girls MLM/NXIVM 101, Mystery Religion, alluding to undefined terms that trigger feelings of nostalgia for an idealised past, mirroring the cults of Odinism, and the Thule Society. It also promotes magical thinking and assumption based collectivism. Like the Crusades, Pogroms, Witchhunts and Inquistions. It was the Catholic Church that gave Nazis a way out of Germany, via the ratlines. The term Lügenpresse, 'lying press', was used by the German National Socialist Party before and during the Third Reich to discredit the news mediaa Donald John Trump (King John the Great) Born to Fred Christ and Mary McKleod on a Super Wolf Blood Moon 700 days before the founding of israel on the day of the Pharaoh, 7 days before the Summer Solstice, keeps a book of Hitler's speeches next to his bed called _"My New 0rder"_ and reads from it verbatim at his rallies. His mentor Norman Vincent Peale was a 33rd degree Master Mason, He lives in 666ft Trump tower on the 66th floor in a 33,000 square foot Penthouse modelled after Versailles in Paris, built by Lious XIV the Sun King. He was inaugurated on the 100 year anniversary of the Bolsheviks aged 70 years, 7 months and 7 days old, moving the embassy to Jerusalem on israel's 70th anniversary. Baron is another name for Fuehrer, a Title bestowed by the Holy Roman Empire. He also gave the Saudis whom he accused of 9II permits to make Nuclear reactors The documents he stole likely pertained to the operation of the reactors, which can be used to make Nukes. Saudi Arabia was founded by Churchill and the Crown in 1934 to protect israel from Arab Revolt, it's the home of Wahabbism, the ideology of Isis banned by Islam proper. Epstein's passport listed Saudi Arabia as his country of residence, and he had a Wahabbi funeral, just like Osama, whose family were doing Brunch at the Bush family mansion on the morning of 9II, and now handle the Pipeline contracts through Isis controlled Syria, particularly the Golan Heights, which Trump ceded to israel in 2017, and where Genie Oil operates. Elon also has ties to Genie Oil via Texas Senator Bill Richardson who gave Elon $3 Billion in taxpayer subsidies, and whose on the board of Genie Oil, as well as Rupert Murdoch, US Treasurer Larry Summers, CIA Director James Woolsey, Art Smuggler Michael Steinhardt, Sec Def Donald Rumsfeld, Treasurer under Trump and CEO of the Bank of Cyprus Wilbur Ross, as well as Jakob Rosschild They're controlling public discourse to prevent spontaneous labor movements from gaining ground. Twitter is a $44 billion dollar shitpost before the 2024 election cycle, to ensure Trump has the best chance at winning. Hero of dupes everywhere Julian Assange helped Roger Stone and the Trump Campaign in 2016, being the first to suggest challenging the outcome if he lost, and asking to be made the Australian ambassador to the US. Margeret Sunbyrne, the head of the Sun Worship cult he was raised in was also protected by the CIA in the Australian Supreme Court, on grounds of "National Security" Edward Snowden worked for Rabbi Dov Zakheim, Pentagon Comptroller on 9II who "lost" $4 trillion dollars, and owner of CPS, which rolled out remote hijack tech in the AA Fleet in June 2001. Remember Snowden was revealed to us via Glen Greenwad, who now rubs shoulders with Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, and Jimmy Door. At the same time Guiliani's Chief of Police Bernard Kerik went to israel and received $250k from Billionaire Eithan Wertheimer. Kerik was responsible for the passports found that day, handed to him "by some guy". Trump later pardoned Kerik for fraud relating to selling his 9II story in 2020, he then got a job at Fox News. They also both covered up the Truck Bombers caught on the George Washington bridge, and both participated in the planning of Jan 6. Clearly Epstein was working for Trump, who is related to Hillary, and both share charities started by Epstein at the same tax haven address 1209 Nth Orange st Delaware (Biden's seat) where 250k companies occupy the same building. Pelosi's father was a prominent member of the Chicago Mob. The Clintons, Oprah, Dr Oz, Gayle King, Billy Bush, Epstein, and Ghislaine all attended Trump's wedding to his second trans Slovenian wife, whose father was a prominent member in the Tito Communist Party. Elon too had ties to Epstein along with Bill Gates Bezos, and Amber Heard, and posted links to NXIVM, promoting what was found to be an operation not unlike that run by Andrew Tate, who dated Jordan Peterson's daughter, and hung out with the likes of Paul Joseph Watson, Grandson of famous Eugenicist Bertrand Russell, and Milo Yilanopouse, a Catholic who seduced his own Priest. "I propose an Aryan/Semetic alliance in order to create a superior caucasian race" Benjamin Disraeli UK PM 1890 _"But they want nothing but Palestine, because Palestine represents the geostrategic center for World Control"_ Dr Nahum Goldmann _"Today I declare the Crusades won"_ General Edmunde Allenby 1917 upon liberating Palestine. _"We must put an end to anything which brings about any Islamic unity between the sons of the Muslims. As we have already succeeded in finishing off the Caliphate, so we must ensure that there will never rise again unity for the Muslims, whether it be intellectual or cultural unity.“_ George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston, British Foreign Minister 1920. _"The NW0 will begin Sept 17 2001, during Rosh Hashanah Feast of Trumpets, Resurrection of the Dead, on the First Crescent of the New Moon, in the year 6000 of the Great Pyramid Calendar, in order to cleanse the earth and humanity in preparation for his Kingdom to come"_ British Israel Foundation memo 1922. This is why we must call for Direct Digital Democracy without parties or politicians. Citizen initiated referendums with thresholds and a social contract means Communities can vote their own laws. As well as a Public Authority to audit police and prosecute bad actors in our own courts. Thorium energy renders their global energy monopoly obsolete

"Be skeptical about everything you put in your body" that's a lesson for life
Where is this huge demand for raw milk coming from?
@@Scorch428 What are your thoughts on your question?
@@JustADude908 skeptical like the religion in your brain. Or do you practice in selective skepticism
It's good to be skeptical about what you put in your body. But do you do actual research into libraries full of peer-reviewed, reproducible studies to get your answer? Or do you just search for unfounded social media posts and youtube videos that correlate with your pre-existing bias? Just wondering.
I don't require studies. I look at what my ancestors ate.
This documentary shows everything I noticed about life in the US - no freedom to walk because American cities are built for cars, no freedom to buy fresh produce because 90 percent of supermarket food is processed, no freedom to get medical testing because your doctor and insurance can deny it any time, no freedom to get sick because by law employers do not need to provide sick leave, no freedom to take maternity leave, no freedom to get cheap college education, no freedom of cheap kindergartens. Every time I go to Europe I get shocked - people look healthier, less stressed, healthcare is extremely affordable, kids look happier. Strict government control is everywhere in Europe, but it works. Strict government control is bad in the US because of corporations and lobby, lobbyism should be illegal and it is considered corruption in most other countries.
Capitalism goes brrrr
I agree it's not about government. It's about too much corporate power IN government. Don't get me wrong: lobbying is a problem in the EU as well, but we do seem a bit better at government for the people. In the US the solution is always: less government, less regulation. In Europe we try for better government, better regulation. Not a perfect system, but it does work better, I think.

@@jiw71 you realize that you cannot completely avoid big business and government living deep in the country? You also eliminate having an interesting life by becoming a loner. Why do Americans only understand how amazing life in Europe is after they retire?
Greetings from Europe where we consume 80% of our milk raw. We just do not call it "raw" but instead we call it "fresh".
I am thankful to such thought provoking documentaries because they tell me I'm not crazy. I'm a sane person in a crazy world.
You know why it's called the American dream ? Because you gotta be asleep to believe it .George Carlin.
yes, ok, but did they have to make it all about frugs midway? it was interesting until that point.
There are individually correct issues brought up in this video, but the overall message is BS. You think with minimal government everything will be fine? No! Big business and moneyed interest will control things even more! The solution isn't to mindlessly shrink government but to shrink the power of business over government and in general. There can be bad or good laws agencies and regulation, it's not the amount that matters, it's the quality. All toe examples given are cherry picked with heavily biased narrative to a BS conclusion. The video only briefly and partially mentions that the thing big money wants most is no regulation. Besides those that advocate for "small government" also advocate for shit like private schools and prisons and all sorts of dreadful stuff that increases the influence of big business over government. LOL at bitcoin being held up as anything good. Bitcoin is a way for the rich to get richer and for people to buy heroine online while avoiding the law etc. The equipment required to process the currency is a environmental tragedy. You know that when people do bit coin mining, its not like they get currency for every bit they do, a bunch of people redundantly do the same thing and like the first person to finish gets it, AKA those with the fastest most expensive equipment and internet connection. Also bitcoins value goes all over the place and usually down. Digital currency sucks.
Notice the date of the documentary 2014? I noticed a lot of documentaries from that time have been deleted from youtube.
This is Bullshit "Libertarian" neoliberalism, in the guise of democratic idealism, it's anti-regulation or any rules for all industry disinformation from people like Koch's etc.

This quote saved my life ( bit overstated) because it allowed me to see that my dissatisfaction & depression with not fitting in with those around me was NOT because I was at fault but they were (well a large number anyway). I was on the "Beat the Jones's" ride & always upset that I didn't have the best & wanted more but once I saw the Zeitgeist Movement movies I realised I was chasing the wrong dream & that I should be happy that I have it better than most people. Now my dissatisfaction & depression is from seeing the world spiraling ever closer & closer to going down the drain to a corporate run world like those in "Bladerunner" & "Pandora" where only profit matters & NOTHING else. Fight The Fight & Spread the Word.

@@letsmakeit110 Don't worry, I have learned a way to solve the issue without waiting for people to sleep.
At 85 and a retired aerospace engineer, one important lesson that I've followed is To Live Within My Means. Even then, what with inflation, especially in food, in gasoline, in taxes, in utilities, and in insurance -- making ends meet is an uphill battle! I'm frugal but what are considered "Necessities" are becoming Unaffordable, if truth be told.
Two years ago, I calculated that I had enough funds to make ends meet for another 10 years. And if I sold my house, that I could last even longer. Hell, I even prepaid my death and cremation expenses! Today, what with climate change, what with the whole global economy drowning in a rising sea of red ink, the risk of spreading social unrest and violence is increasing! And the proverbial fertilizer is hitting the proverbial fan!
If this is too upsetting, you can always call it FAKE NEWS!! But stick around for just a few more years. Because time will tell; it always does.

As a wise man said " If voting made a difference, would they allow us to vote ?"
get out and vote, all the same.
Voting locally is what will make the difference.
EXACTLY
If voting didn't matter Republicans wouldn't be making it harder to vote.
That's so true. Because it doesn't matter who is in government, the one track money minded people call the shots. Moreover the choice is mostly between two parties. Two parties, are they enough to represent the whole nation?
Remember the band "Devo"??? One of their songs went like this, "Freedom of choice, is what you got. Freedom from choice is want you."
Every single person on the planet should watch this.
I live in an area where we have a farmers grocery store, it is a year round farmers market under roof where a single grocery store gathers and sells the products from the local farmers. Raw milk, meat that is butchered, salted and packaged, milk, eggs, chicken, fruits and vegetables. I no longer eat potato chips or any processed food. ALL my health problems have gone away, I have lost 20 pounds and my mental clarity is like it was in my 20's. When you get rid of all the crap food in your diet, you have more money to eat "real" food that is actually healthy for you, so the per item cost might be higher, but the snacking and crap you used to eat is gone, so your weekly grocery bill is the same or less. Win, Win for your health and wallet.
It is great!!..i stopped too!.Feel better today then in my 20's!

You are very lucky - it is what MOST people want, but unfortunately, that kind of fresh produce markets have gradually been killed in SA due to politics - from municipal to national level - and most farmers sell their produce to the highest bidders.
Wow! I learned a lot.
That’s great! I have lost 50 lbs myself last year and just from eating healthy butchered meat, and growing my own vegetables last year. I feel amazing and I’m with you 100% . The food pyramid was created by govt and we trusted this and were taught this in school - everyone knows it.. but it’s inaccurate. Best advice: learn to fast, cut out sugar, eat healthy and in only a short time you will have cleaned up enough your body will tell you when it’s hungry and when it’s not - LISTEN TO IT
"As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome." Chomsky
The only way is to get enough public support to revolutionize politics taking the money interest out of it and separate definitely destroying totally this revolving door. Polititians must be changed to public servants who the job must be earning only enough to live, must be someone from the general public who's not rich and not too poor if doesn't have the knowledge. Political campaign donations must be abolished. Political party system too Internet could be use and a platform where voters can see the issues the country faces and use democracy for voting on the issues and priorities and also on the candidates. This would minimize all the cost as every citizen must vote, log in the platform vote on the issues and candidates who will be more than happy to be monitored and have their private lives taken. No people with public money must be trusted without certainty.

"the unvaxxed should be put in camps" - also Chomsky
@@bobgillis1137That’s not exactly what he said (“they should isolate themselves” direct quote), but *more importantly* did you not learn anything by watching this doc? Another reason we’re in the place we are as a country is our focus on culture wars. When we focus on things the media feeds us like the vax or trans or blm movement (on either side of the debates) we continue to allow corporations to rape us. It’s exactly what they want. Why do you think there’s always such an uproar when a corporation is accused of supporting social responsibility causes? It’s provides them the opportunity to distract us from the real problems. Like the fact that Jeff Bezos & Elon Musk have been allowed to pay no taxes at all.
Chomsky is caught doing pedo stuff with Epstein. He’s not to be trusted anymore
The root of the problem is human greed. And that will never go away. There is no hope whatsoever.

I remember relaying my thoughts on this to someone about 30 years ago and it sent them off the deep end. I basically aligned it to people being like cows in a field.Cows get fed,cows get water, cows get looked after and they get this every day.Milked,let out,fed,watered,milked repeat.But here’s the thing,if a cow decides oh today I don’t want to do that,I want to go for a walk down the lane instead,it quickly realises it’s not free,it’s captured and returned to the field and then realises it’s not got a real choice it’s only allowed to operate in a space defined by someone in a higher position.We all go to work,have busy lives ,too busy to stop and either smell the bullshit or do anything about it ,so it continues.Our illusion of freedom is the size of the field and the other side of the fence is reality.
cows are also force vaccinated and tagged.
and not just that, we are constrained to this physical world as if this is all there is, neglecting the spiritual side of our beings and label anyone doing so a quack.

What I see, is that this way of life, is actually a consequence of bullying and the harm that occurs.

One lesson I get from this is whatever system we have in place, there will always be some people who would mess it up for everybody including themselves. This reminded me of the words of the prophet Jeremiah who said: "I well know, O Jehovah, that man’s way does not belong to him. It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct his step." (Jeremiah 10:23) Humans are just too short-sighted and greedy. Only Jehovah God can truly make all mankind happy for eternity. (Re 21:4)

I appreciate the sentiment but a few things about this are dumb: 1. Regulatory bodies like the FDA make decisions on the national level - this means they are necessarily keen to act on low-risk but high-volume events like drinking milk. Suppose the risk was 1/10'000 (0.01%) of getting food poisoning from raw milk. Those are odds you or I would be willing to take, but multiplying this risk by the number of milk drinkers in the USA (say 1/3 of the population has 1 glass per day), every year this would amount to over 2.6 million cases of food poisoning from raw milk. That's not a small number. If any percentage of these cases of food poisoning are fatal, there are now lives at stake from the FDA's perspective - lives they would otherwise be to blame for. 2. On the same point of the consequences at scale, pointing out that a widely distributed prescription drug resulted in 10'000s of deaths while it circulated in market is exactly the sort of stuff which turns the hairs on the FDA bureaucrats grey - they know that anything they approve or allow to circulate in HUGE numbers around the country will have large consequences even when the risks are small. Small like the food poisoning from raw milk, and yes, small from the release of prescription drugs with side effects. Somehow we'd be willing to absolve them of the harms from common foods like raw milk but mistakes in the evaluation of prescription safety is pegged to them like a grudge to no ends. As a general rule, decisions about whether things are net positives or net negatives are rarely taken in pure isolation on the good or the bad, the question is always whether the bad outweighs the good. In the case of prescriptions like Vioxx, clearly the evaluation on the beneficial effects (treating arthritis / relieving pain and inflammation) did not outweigh the risks of cardiovascular events. And in the case of raw milk, pasteurizing it so that [what the FDA considers to be the nutritional content] of the milk is unaffected but the risk of food poisoning is reduced by several orders of magnitude, they have so far stood by the net positive of that decision. Again, from a high-volume national perspective, preventing thousands / millions of cases of food poisoning and potential deaths is a win to them but potentially a loss to the individual's choice. I'd urge the caveat here to be that the FDA is trying to prevent a conflict of interest between turning a profit from selling something like raw milk (which if advertised as 'healthier' or 'more natural' could be a serious markup) against the potential risks that the consumer may have either downplayed or simply have been unaware of. Remember the consequences of big numbers: that is the perspective that the FDA operates from. And this takes me to my last gripe: 3. Counting cannabis deaths as 0 on the same chart as cigarette and alcohol related deaths is, going back to the numbers thing, the opposite problem: the number of alcohol-drinking and cigarette-smoking people simply far outweighs the number of pot smokers. And this does not even consider that cannabis-related deaths do not yet count the long-term indirect effects of smoking, such as cancer, pneumonia and other adverse effects from long-term usage. On the other hand, very large and thorough studies of the masses who consume alcohol and smoke cigarettes their entire lives, do, making the raw figures on related deaths seem far far worse compared to 0. I'm the last person to be anti-cannabis and anti-freedom of choice - there are much better arguments to be made in their favor. It's just annoying to have to sit and watch crumby and partially misconstrued figures and perspectives be rattled off under revelatory tones. You claim the unwoke sheep who are your neighbors to be completely ignorant to the glorious truth but peddle an equal amount of nonsense to a curious audience who wants to expand their understanding. Sucks man.
Good point, you made it very clear that specific FDA regulations show their benefit when applied to large numbers. Maybe the idea the film wanted to convey here was about institutions being so careful with the health hazard posed by raw milk in contrast with the lack of care when approving drugs tested only by the producer. Zooming out, I found the film successful in explaining the connection between politics and powerful industries - the lobbying of regulating bodies - and the examples of politicians who move back and forth from office to the payroll of corporations were eloquent.
@@ancagauca9945 This is true also. Maybe taking some points they made in the bigger picture for granted on my part may have allowed smaller things to overshadow what would be news to many viewers. Oh well, onwards and upwards dear commenter, we strive to learn everyday and do our best in between.
3. The thing is, I get where you're coming from here, but I think you should keep this in mind: The goal of showing that data wasn't to give an exact statistic of how harmful cannabis is compared to tobacco and alcohol, but rather to show that the government has not provided any proof showing that cannabis is more harmful than tobacco or alcohol. The wording of the statistic is very important here: The statistic is covering "reported deaths", meaning the data isn't meant to be an actual measurement of cannabis-related death rates compared to tobacco and alcohol-related death rates, but rather to simply show the data that has been gathered so far; that data may or may not be representative of the truth, but that's not the point. Because the government is the one attempting to ban cannabis, the burden of proof rests on the government to show that cannabis is more harmful than tobacco or alcohol. The burden of proof does not rest on the documentary to show that cannabis is less harmful than tobacco or alcohol; the only thing the documentary must show is that the government has failed to provide any proof that cannabis is more harmful than tobacco or alcohol. And that's where the statistic comes into play: We have data showing that tobacco and alcohol carry some kind of death risk, and the government does not ban these drugs, but we have no data whatsoever showing the death risk of cannabis yet the government bans cannabis and labels it as more dangerous despite the lack of data. That decision for the government to ban cannabis cannot have any scientific basis because the data doesn't even exist; that doesn't necessarily mean cannabis has no death risk or isn't as harmful as tobacco and alcohol, it just simply means the data has not been established for us to know. And thus, the basis for the government banning cannabis must be grounded in lobbying efforts by companies to prevent any competition from cannabis distributors and sellers; at least, that's the point that the documentary is making.
Excellent documentary. I hope that more people will watch it. We need an awakening.

I grew up on a farm in the 50's and 60's. When we drank milk it was always unpasteurized. We never had anyone become ill drinking or using unpasteurized milk. We also did not refrigerate our eggs. If you do not wash off the cuticle, the eggs stay safe from salmonella, but their self life is not as long. There is also no difference between brown eggs and white eggs. White eggs come from white feathered chickens and brown eggs come from red feathered chickens.

This is one of the biggest problems of our time. All corporations should be "nonentities" with regard to our political process. They should not pay taxes (which are passed through to consumers), nor should they be able to donate to political candidates, political PACs, or government agencies. A corporation is a piece of paper - a corporate charter. They are not citizens. The government is using corporations to circumvent the Constitution and free market capitalism.

The men that started our country were free, they went through great lengths to gain that freedom... only for future generations to willingly give it up for "safety."
If that were true. But since it isn't, and this is just the usual American pastime of finding someone, anyone, to blame for anything that has gone wrong personally or corporately or nationally, collective awareness is unlikely to make much difference. This is not the America that the Founders designed the Constitution for, and they specified that--it was only for an educated, moral people and wholly inadequate to any other.
Exactly. The only truly free people are those still living in true tribal societies. That doesn't mean they don't have things to worry about, but they don't have to be forced or mind controlled or have a bunch of rules in order to live with their group. Now... empires? You gotta *make* people live in empires. There was a period from before the Revolution to the early part of the US when white settlers were leaving by the thousands to join native tribes, either voluntarily or also sometimes captured and brought into the group. The US government couldn't stand the insult (they wrote letters complaining about how white people choose to live with the Indians, but Indians never choose to join white society) and finally forced a return of all white people to the States. They had to be dragged back by force. Some escaped and rejoined their tribe. Some had to be locked up by their families. Some lived out their lives in depression and anger at having to return. One woman wrote about her experience in the tribe and said no American woman would ever be as free as she had been.
@@OkiefromMuskogee323 🤣 Yeah, sure. References, please, to these letters written by the US Government. Also, a white, very young person captured by Natives, the rest of the family typically killed and often brutally, would know no other life and might make assumptions about what it was like, just like you make about what it was like to be Native.
Raw milk is forbidden in Australia also but what is really weird is that out govt allows the sale of imported unpasteurised cheese but local farmers are not allowed to produce it!

Why is lobbying even legal? Isn't it just another word for "corruption"?
its part of "freedom of speech" in US constitution but also countries like Australia where the High Court rules as such. Like most things, its a question of "to what extent"
Democracy is when those who make decisions on your behalf have the duty to ask for your consent first. Today's republics are actually modern oligarchies in which the interest groups of the rich are arbitrated by the people, that is, you can choose from which table of the rich you will receive crumbs. The "fatigue" of democracy occurs when there is a big difference between the interests of the elected and the voters, thus people lose confidence in the way society functions. As a result, poor and desperate citizens will vote with whoever promises them a lifeline, i.e. populists or demagogues. The democratic aspect is a collateral effect in societies where the economy has a strong competitive aspect, that is, the interests of those who hold economic power in society are divergent. Thus those with money, and implicitly with political power in society, supervise each other so that none of them have undeserved advantages due to politics.
It's actually another word for "Bribery", which is illegal, but "lobbying isn't. So next time you get pulled over by a cop... offer him "Lobbying" money.
Citizens can form lobbying groups except the government is very effective at keeping people fighting each other over stupid crap to distract us from what's going on.
It’s legal because of a corrupt Supreme Court. In a decision called Citizens United vs FEC, the Supreme Court decided that corporations should be treated like citizens, and as such, they should be able to give money to Congress and lobby. This was decided 2010, so a very new law. It was called a “freedom of speech” issue. But what it did was make all congress people taking corporate money beholden to corporations instead of the people. For example: Joe Manchin (lobbyists call him the kingmaker because of how much power he holds) takes a lot of money from big oil and gas, and surprise, surprise he’s been on the Energy and Natural resources committee since 2010. It helps that his family owns a coal mine. No conflict of interest there. Oh, and Citizens United is an ultra conservative organization. But they all do it, except the Progressive Democrats, they don’t and believe no one else should either.
I choose to not listen to the corporate line and to not submit myself to corporate influence. I do demand my elected officials to regulate corporations.

Exactly. It’s the their job to protect their people. If they didn’t you guys would be bitching for those reasons.
@@yourmommashouse No, it is not their job to make the world safe. Nowhere in the constitution does it call for the government to provide safety. It is the government's duty to protect the liberty of the people and provide defense. It is not the government's duty to use violence against the people to subdue them in the name of safety. Also, the Supreme Court has made the decision that police have no duty to protect the people. So, exactly what are the police officer's duties? They are to extract wealth from the people so the municipal corporation that hired them can profit.
actually there is a thing called safety and it has its price and we are free to pay or not that price imho.

Fry urban society becomes a heavily regulated society. In order to maintain order in an urban environment leadership becomes entangled in class struggles. These are jaguar economic factors. Those with money and power wasn't to stay in power and in order to do so political corruption creeps in the form of nepotism, bribery, legal corruption and voter fraud. No matter where you live these are certain. Moscow or Washington. NYC or London to Argentina and Beijing. It's why most our founders envisioned an agrarian society of small independent towns and cities with free acting local governments doing most of the decisions on what regulations and laws they would organize their cultures and economies around. States rights were central to the Democratic Republic we formed after the Revolution of 1776. Federal government was only to provide for national defense, intestate conserve (limited authority) etc.
"thats what freedom is, freedom from government" This quote is like a half truth. Sure, some government departments exercise what could be viewed as prohibitive or restricting laws that curb behaviors.

So I don't get to walk around downtown naked. Why not - Why is my freedom to be naked being curbed? Well we can generally agree why this is the case and we are probably better off for it. This is just one example of many.

You can certainly see the signs of things going this way in the UK.

I keep hearing people shout out to vote Reform, but I don't know who they are really, and would voting for them simply split the 'alternative' vote, thus letting the Tories in again. This is a difficult time for Britain, as it is in many other countries across the world, and we don't really know 'who' is being lobbied anywhere. I only wish our king had more powers.

As a lucky child from poor Detroit my Father had a cousin in Canada. one summer as school ended we traveled to their dairy farm. I doffed my shoes and learned the ways of farm life. Wood stove in the kitchen was ablase providing hot water from the tank hung upon its side. I wondered at the many wonderous meals that my cousin were able to cook upon such a stove, each day before dawn we went to gather eggs for a breakfast of biscuits and bacon and eggs. then it was time to go get the cows. still dark we ran down the lane and drove them to the barn. they all new their place and we went and secured them and placed some forage to keep them content. I wasn't very strong yet and I had to set the buckets down halfway to the cooler tank . this held the milk for the truck to collect. then it was off to the field to cut and rake the straw for bedding. At seven I learned to drive the tractor which made the work for my cousins faster. at noon we sat under a tree and ate the food we took to the fields. we usually finished around five and had to milk the cows again. as all were finished and we headed for the house we could smell dinner. I was told to go and get some milk from the cooler. Raw milk along with potatoes and round steak peas and corn we were stuffed. as all was taken to the kitchen we all headed for bed and collapsed without effort ,sleep came easily, and soundly. I grew healthy on that farm, now at 80 I have no high blood pressure no cholesterol, I take no medication for anything. all my cousins are older than I are still living. not so with my friends from Detroit. All dead. Which brings me to my point. all the ones that banned the raw milk are dead! It is a shame that our young will never taste millk as it was meant to be drank. so sad!!!! -------- I, Grampa
Your little empirical family is quaint. Yeah, I'm going to drink raw milk because you and your cousins are 80 and healthy. Science be damned.
This Clip is possibly the most IMPORTANT one on KZhead !...

I find it"s true that many people don"t get it; don"t realize that their food choices are controlled, or they are accepting of it because it seems too challenging to counter the system. I find it aggravating that folks don't use their power to boycott the choices forced on them although it's challenging. Take your power back by choosing what you buy or don't buy! Support the small farmers.
The milk choice is so limited that you can't find milk without a sugar additive. Sugar is in nearly everything now, and diseases(obesity, diabetes, heart disease, immune disorders, etc) are the highest they have ever been.
@@ChilltothendWhat? Most milk has no sugar added.
@@memoryrinehart4452 I was shocked to find 12 grams of sugar on the label added to a gallon of milk. I didn't think about it, until I drank milk that tasted like a sweet cereal. So, you say most milk doesn't add sugar, but its almost a guarantee more will start adding sugar, because they are competing against sugary soft drinks. I have never known a kid to not like milk, except skim milk.
Thats why the Danish model by Bernia Sanders is interesting. That makes salerypay and companies a lot too . Those bilions are used equal for all. Its free scholes, education, free health care equal, descent pension. Vacations too. The worlds get that has be educated and behave have well. The workers support their company and work and hard. They dont need control and well as whipping the the oppesite. , The state partly has the upper hand too. In bad times they says ok calm down. In good tamis the supporting rasing livering stardards standard. In crises the state also create many goo temperity jobs(bridges, road, hospitals, school). So we have a very big tool USA not have at all. YThe have eroded Your kind of low lend problems away. Housing, drugs, crimes, living age. Non can say can they had no chance. They contribute as well as they can and are included.

@@AshkenaziChristian the moon
@@mzad3957 LOL, I believe it. Ten years ago, following the murder of my elderly Christian Mother by my mason/eastern star relatives, I looked at every country to determine if there was one not 100% under the influence of the masons and I couldn't any. Had I found one, I'd be there now. Even Antartica is governed by them. The moon would be a good choice if it was the rock they purport it to be instead of the luminary it is.
The docu started out really well with the problem of lobbyism, but then turned into a totally unreflected rant against governmental regulations. Of course, we need governmental regulations: We all need to drive on the same side of the road. We need laws punishing violence. We need to hold big tech accountable. Drugs need to be approved. We need rules for gun owners. Otherwise, we would live in anarchism. The absence of these regulations would NOT entail "freedom". Yes, not all regulations make intuitive sense, but a more reflected argument towards the concept of freedom would be necessary here beyond the childish understanding of "freedom means that I can do what I want".
So sad what corruption has done to this country!
You can't buy Raw milk but you can buy ROUND-UP! ABSURED!
and most of our tea and apple and rice products have high levels of arsenic in them because the soil they grow in has old residue from fertilizers or insecticides that were high in arsenic from when it was legal to use it
When the farmer talks about the carbon cycle, he actually means the nitrogen cycle. This is to do with animals pasturing on fields which will later grow crops. We learned about this in biology in secondary school in Ireland, also i lived in a farming town.
Noticed this too
I don’t need to watch very much of this. By the time I was starting high school I had read enough books to see exactly what kinda country I lived in. Good luck changing any of it.
This is a great documentary, but it's nowhere near complete when you leave out the military industrial complex.
This is too depressing too watch. The crap government and corporations do is beyond crazy
All by design
It's possible because we, the ignorant public, allow them to.
A bas l’état à bas l’argent !!!
Because you let them
@@JLFAN2009Bingo, if we as poor people can decide that we don't want consume the bullshit they produce and people stop working for them then they do not have power. The only way for change to happen is if people decide that they have nothing to lose. For as long as people are in fear, nothing is going to happen.
Thank you to the producers and those bringing this truth to THE LIGHT!
and? Where is the effect of the truth? " the dog is barking, and the bark is gone with the wind..". that's all, that's what our country leader doesn't change for the better...
if this would be the truth it wouldnt be on here?
Truth is the light.
To start a big discussion about the meaning and difference of Democracy and Capitalism...Living in a country where some parts of society are governed and controlled by the state, and others are in the free market.... When I compare it to how things work in the US, I think their system is very faulty... It is dangerous to let capitalism be the leading force in all areas. There are other values that a government must protect. Capitalism must be controlled...because greed is a very strong force that will destroy our society if we let it too free...
That was pretty damn good, thanks.
Anybody that pays any attention to Washington D.C. already knows pretty much all of this . I have known about the problem for the last 30 years or more but it's good to tell the story for people that don't pay attention!
The story is the same in Australia.

I live in Germany and a few Years ago I drunk raw Milk, because I thaught it was healthier. Ended up with Years of recovering from damaged my Colon. Believe it or not. It´s not advised to drink raw Milk. And I am a private Person here, no one told me to write this. Just my own Expierience. Have a good one.
I know exactly how they feel being ripped off and threatened by these corporations. Great video, these people in the wrong need to share the wealth.
One little tid-bit of info about the difference btwn raw milk and pasteurized milk is that raw milk never goes bad, it just sours. There are lots of recipes that call for sour milk. But pasteurized milk will actually ROT. (become rotten), even before you can smell it rotting. (scary!)
oh I just love buttermilk biscuits and cornbread👍
We once had a tub of cream which went sour - totally blue, in the end. My gf just put it in a dish when we had guests. They were amazed at how good it tasted - "it must be made with Roquefort cheese ?" - but we didn't want to disappoint them by telling them the truth.
Fermentation vs putrefaction Pasteurized milk rots in your gut Too chemically toxic a process and degrades the ecology of the intestinal biome
where can i have more info?

I was an idiot that read lots of books, newspapers, magazines, but I was unable to realize it was all Kabuki play, until I took the red pill. Now everything is crystal clear, I not happier now, but I fell freedom and that feels really rewarding
I was also a fool to my own demise it took many years to get out. My health and wealth have suffered, still recovering but getting better step by step. And when I had my insight I felt relief and like you a feeling of freedom. Relief from all this illusion but especially with the guilt and blame cause when your decisions was wrong society grows you into the reflex to blame yourself.
They tell us that we NEED that catalytic converter on our cars to prevent pollution. Fact: the air we breath is no different today than it was in 1965. Catalytic Converters (that work) are very expensive. Follow the money......................
The only problem is that there's no revolving door in sight for me.
When my daughter was 4yo, we were invited to a dairy farm for lunch. Our host offered us raw milk. Her mother (a doctor) refused. On the other hand, this was an opportunity I couldn't resist. The next week in Church (without her mother) My daughter whispered in my ear..."That family looks awfully healthy. What kind of disease do you get from raw milk that makes you look so healthy?"
From the mouth of babes …..
By raw milk do you mean not boiled milk or just unprocessed milk.
@@shubham5832 Udder to table.
I'm sure your 4 year old said just like that. Now was this before or after she presented her treatise on how to bring peace to the Middle East?

In Canada we had a farmer who grew canola sued by a major GMO Corporation for “growing and stealing” GMO infused seed that had blown into his field from one of his neighbours. His crop looked no different from what it usually appeared as it was growing, but when he went to sell it, it was tested and found to have the GMO component that eliminated Nefarious weeds and enhanced the growth of the canola crop. His crop for that field and year were removed after court case and he had to,pay a fine for growing canola without “the licence” allowing GMO infused seed on his property. The GMO product wafted onto his fields on the wind draft from a neighbour, not from his sown actions.
happens in USA too. IT's serious problem, more so than it seems at first
The fact that government even allowed for such bullshit law suits is a testimony to the power and control of corporate interests and greed over societies. It's sick.
That was an episode of The Good Wife
You would think that's a lawsuit if it had been poison an killed his crops bet it would have been a different story, so sad we have allowed fascism to set in our government, the coupling of corporations with government will be the end of the US, we can see it happening now😢
Surely this is a case where Shylock's judgement applies. Admit the crops are there, allow the neighbour to remove the cross-contaminated crops, but let him know he will be prosecuted for theft if he takes one single grain that is not GMO?
No accountability for our rulers.
thank you

That's why he wants to replace the lobbyists and ensure more democracy. How ? quite simply the American lobbyists through Russian lobbyists 😂😂
