Guest guest Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 I am forwarding a reply I sent to a dear friend recently regarding Codex. I have been unable for years to get any action in this direction. This seems the most likely avenue for success. Any feed back would be welcome. Hi Guys, I've been working on this for years to no avail. Large class action suits are the way to go using the customer base from several large companies as the class. ( Seasilver claims 2 million users of its products. You see if you can get Bella to return your call!) This would enable you to have millions of adherents to the suit. How about each customer donate 5-10 bucks to cover suit expenses?.....It would be an irresistible tactic and we would win. I can't get companies to realize that no matter how many govt. hoops they jump through now, their companies WILL be gone tomorrow! Unless something changes AND FAST, you better start growing/acquiring knowledge/making all this stuff yourself. These nutrasutical companies need to pick up the ball on this. Without them I am concerned that this tactic would go nowhere. They have the client base intact and as such they would bring a TREMENDOUS amount of muscle to bear right out of the gate. They have the bully pulpit with their clients and a ready avenue for disseminating the info on codex. For the most part nobody knows this has been and is coming. Rather than wait for them to bleed you dry with a thousand paper cuts, you have to go on the attack. The ONLY hope for survival in an ambush is to attack the ambush. I would be happy to talk to the Meleluca guy or anybody with horsepower to get this moving. Like I've said I have spent a few years trying to talk to any company head to get them to see that unless we do this NOW we are all sunk. My impression has been that they feel safe so long as the bullies are " appeased " . They don't seem to understand that the appeasement will be short lived and that their companies WILL BE PUT OUT OF BUSINESS PERIOD! Fear is the reason they are not acting. Your idea sounds fine. I would rather be ( and work MUCH better) behind the scenes. However if we can put together a strong coalition that has a chance to get it done I WILL do whatever is necessary. One of the things you MUST watch for in the forming of the coalition is that you have NO undercover people who are working for the other side. As we have already identified SEVERAL, this is a HUGE concern because this is one of the more favored tactics. This ESPECIALLY applies to legal council. I wonder if there is a popular periodical specific to nutracutical manufactures. Most fields of any size have them. If so I wonder if an article submitted to this/these magazines announcing this call to action would be of any merit?....... Another sticky wicket is that the suits would have to be filed against federal agencies and appendages. Our ol gubiment has seen fit to immunize themselves from lawsuits unless they agree to be sued....... Sooo top flight lawyer type fellers are going to have to be employed. Another problem is that codex is one of a GREAT MANY topics health and health-care wise that the gubiment CAN " T let get away from them.... However I will leave that for another conversation. Helloooooo,........ Is this thing on?....................... Bb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
