EU FOLLIES: Apparently those hopeless romantics at the
European Union are pining for Europe's glory days when rickets, scurvy, rotten teeth and other malnutritional maladies were the masses' lot in life. Why else would the socialist central planners of the EU want to ban dietary and herbal supplements from being sold in member countries? The
Guardian reports that EU goons are "set to nip the natural medicine market in the bud: soon, that popular vitamin C, echinacea and zinc combination may not be allowed on the shelves. A shadow looms large over the alternative health sector . . . hundreds of vitamin and mineral supplements could be banned outright, while an as yet incalculable number of common herbal remedies will disappear unless consumers challenge it."
How long will European consumers put up with this political version of Frankenstein's monster, this unnaturally created and imposed political entity which serves no purpose other than to destroy consumers' economic and political freedom? Perhaps there's a windmill somewhere in Strasbourg into which an angry European mob can chase the EU legislators. "Fire good!"
