We're Watching you!

Who's watching you ... well, quite a few people, not just the government.

Since the dawn of time, humanity has been watched by someone, or some thing. All ancient empires had their spies. The Church watched witches and heretics. The Romans watched the Jews and Christians. The rich watched the poor. The communists and Nazis watched everyone. McCarthy watched 'fellow travelers.' The government watched the Japanese. In the Cold War, all were being watched. We watch the Chinese and they watch us. With 911 we starting watching Muslims. Now we discover that our government is watching maybe all of us.

Perhaps even more insidious, corporations are watching all that you do. Have you ever looked up a product on Amazon or, for that matter, any internet company? Then, no matter what site you are on, you begin to see adds for the products that you searched elsewhere. I looked up kayaks and it seems that no matter what site I'm on, I see adds for kayaks.

There appears to be a great concern about Snowden and his release of information regarding how the government is spying on us. So what else is new? Is there an uproar over corporate spying on the average citizen? Haven't really seen any.

So the fundamental question is: Do we really care if 'someone' watches us? Do we care if they virtually know just about everything about us? If this is a loss of freedom, does it matter? What, as a society, are we willing to tolerate regarding others 'knowing' about us?

While we need to think about these things, I suspect that there is really nothing that can be done to stop the watching. How would one even go about it? Do we really think that we can stop secret spying into our lives?

HERE COME THE BUGS

From NPR we read, "Every day in hospitals all over America, thousands of patients die of infections that used to be curable. But the antibiotics used to treat them anymore.
It's called , and it's largely a consequence of antibiotics overuse. The more germs are exposed to antibiotics, the faster they mutate to evade being vanquished.
To counter the growing trend, the Obama administration is moving on many fronts to speed the development of new antibiotics."

Let's face it, simple and natural is best and viruses and bacteria have not developed resistance to such things as cumin, tea tree oil and many other common products. A healthy body is generally safe. Get off the GMO's, soda, processed foods, artificial sweetners, BPA tainted products, eliminate the pesticides and chemicals in and around the home, fast foods and junk foods and avoid the issue altogether.

Above all, beware the new drugs!
