It’s patients — not governments — who should steer their own medical decisions, once they’ve been fully informed. The story of the PSA test reminds us that well-intentioned medicine can cause real harm when certainty is oversold and humility is lost.
Brownstone Institute is well-positioned to be a fiscal sponsor of this effort. This is why Brownstone is stepping up to help with raising the necessary capital to see this project to fruition.
Our food system is not a free market. It is not capitalism in any recognizable form. It is a government-engineered economy propped up by taxpayer dollars at every stage. Each year, more than $40 billion is used to subsidize commodity crops.

After witnessing, and continuing to witness, the reaction to emerging information about the early cancer signal related to Covid-19 vaccination or infection, I recalled the historical timelines of other early cancer signals.
