Big Pharma drug lords finally admit ADHD is a scam

Overprescribing ADHD drugs to children is an evergreen of right-wing school systems, Big Pharma, and those who do their bidding. This scam is driven by oppression and greed. But now that folks are catching on - albeit much too slowly - doctors who prescribe ADHD meds are now coming right out and saying it's a fraud, but continuing to prescribe it anyway. And the poor are the biggest targets.

The New York Times exposes this nationwide scandal in detail. In the Times story, an Atlanta area pediatrician who serves low-income families boasts that he prescribes powerful drugs to children after deliberately making a false diagnosis of ADHD. He confesses ADHD is "made up" but says he issues this diagnosis just so he can drug kids for bad academic performance.

"We've decided as a society that it's too expensive to modify the kid's environment. So we have to modify the kid," he coos. Um, no. That's not how it works.

The medical establishment is exposing children to potentially deadly side effects of powerful drugs just to make things convenient for their overlords at school. But in reality, improving your grades by 2% isn't worth being made a zombie. It's unrealistic to expect a child to be perfect in every subject.

I know all this from experience.

Isn't it an open-and-shut case of malpractice for a doctor to diagnose somebody with a disorder that the doctor knows they don't have?

Legislators need to ban this practice of falsely diagnosing children with ADHD just to have an excuse to drug them.
