U.S. taxpayers finance approximately 20% of the IMF's budget.
Guess what, Ireland. Brian Lenihan and Brian Cowen just sold you down the IMF river. Why? To bail out bank bondholders and giant European banks. Of course!

The story makes a strong case for the correlation between saturated fat consumption and obesity. Michael Moss nails the issue of the USDA’s two-sided policy: promoting cheese consumption in…

Codex is merely another tool in the chest of an elite group of individuals whose goal is to create a one world government in which they wield complete control.
