About this listen
It is only within our “for-profit” capitalistic American health care system that the surgical device manufacturing industry is allowed to influence people and institutions in ways structured to increase their bottom line, regardless of patient complications or long-term outcomes. American industry has successfully manufactured ingenious methods to circumvent meaningful accountability for their implanted devices.
Through overt manipulation of our national surgeon educational organizations, the examining board institutions responsible for surgeon credentialling, the federal drug administration responsible for patient safety, hospitals, and the insurance industry, they have created an environment that treats patients like necessary objects into which their devices need to be implanted to ultimately satisfy the lofty expectations of their investors and stockholders. This business model only fosters a situation where physical, emotional, and legal risks become paramount for both patients and their surgeons, and do result in life-changing consequences.
This book thoroughly investigates and seriously scrutinizes one aspect of this enormous surgical device and instrumentation industry by focusing on the manufacturing of devices for fusing the sacroiliac joint. The listener will find that what is currently transpiring in this multi-million-dollar industry, that has been in existence for only about 10 years, can be readily generalized to the muti-billion-dollar industry of all surgical device making, that has existed for decades.
It is important for every American to understand how it took industry almost half a century to become the surgical device making powerhouse of today, how enormous amounts of money are made as a result, and how these actions are generating a new paradigm in which patients are simply pawns being outsourced for and manipulated to achieve profits.
This audio contains some bold suggestions as to what the first steps for change might look like, and that these changes will not happen from the top down. It will take a formidable grassroots effort to shift the industrial momentum to exact the meaningful change necessary to put the patient back at the top of America’s healthcare pyramid of importance.

Story
Throughout my life I have done things my way, and they have always worked out - as if I've had luck in my corner. All of my optimism and bravado came to a crashing halt one cold December holiday night, when after an evening out with good friends, I suffered an accident. I was beaten with a pipe and later found under a moving train, resulting in quadriplegia. Given virtually no chance to walk again, I was devastated. But I also had hope, and lots of it. A fire that exists deep within, and has since childhood, burns on no matter the circumstances. I am here for a bigger mission. What would that mission now be?

The War on Ivermectin is the personal and professional narrative of Dr. Pierre Kory, the co-founder of an expert group of physicians, and his plight to alert the world of his group's identification of ivermectin as a highly effective, life-saving, widely available generic medicine with an obvious ability to end the global pandemic.

Story
Mr. Griffin marshals the evidence that cancer is a deficiency disease like scurvy or pellagra aggravated by the lack of an essential food compound in modem mans diet. That substance is vitamin B17. In its purified form developed for cancer therapy, it is known as Laetrile. Why has orthodox medicine waged war against this non-drug approach? The author contends that the answer is to be found, not in science, but in politics, and is based upon the hidden economic and power agenda of those who dominate the medical establishment.

In the age of Big Data we often believe that our predictions about the future are better than ever before. But as risk expert Gerd Gigerenzer shows, the surprising truth is that in the real world, we often get better results by using simple rules and considering less information. In Risk Savvy, Gigerenzer reveals that most of us, including doctors, lawyers, financial advisers, and elected officials, misunderstand statistics much more often than we think, leaving us not only misinformed, but vulnerable to exploitation.
