The carnage caused by the US medical industry has that beat. The Nazis, fascists and the Ustase combined killed slightly less than a million a year. Death on that scale is called a holocaust. The American medical industrial complex kills over 1 million people per year that that figure is based on what gets reported as medical industry induced death. When it comes to preventable deaths the medical industrial complex kills more Americans than smoking and gluttony combined. The medical industry's doctors alone are the third leading cause of preventable deaths and once again, that is based on what gets reported. To put that into perspective guns kill around 50,000 Americans each year and most of those deaths are accidental shootings and suicides. There are about 100 million gun owners in the US and only 700,000 doctors.

Not even the most brazen gun nut will argue that we have too many gun deaths and that preventing gun deaths of all kinds is a good thing. Unfortunately not too many doctors really give a shit that they are killing people at a higher rate than the Nazis did. Wayne Lapierre nut job than he is and his NRA is doing more to prevent gun deaths than the medical industry and its doctors are doing to prevent medical deaths.
The Piety and the Hypocrisy of it Astounds
Every few months some nut with a gun shoots up a school or a mall and the simple minded knee jerk reaction from the left starts and then come the equally stupid reactions from the right starts and in the end there is a stalemate and in a month or so another nut with a gun goes on a shooting rampage. The corporate media foams at the mouth and the talking heads spew the same tired bullshit, lefties and righties try to score political points and nothing gets down.
In every shooting massacre there is a common thread... prescription psychiatric medications which include the deadly SSRI drugs, psycho stimulants, Chantix, Lunesta and Ambien ect... Somehow the media never mentions the drug connection.

Why Do Pharmaceutical Drugs Injure & Kill Millions of Humans? Are We the Real "Guinea-pigs"? . . . Medical journals report that pharmaceutical drugs injure millions and kill hundreds of thousands of people each year. This article examines how drug companies: i) use flexible unscientific tests to make their products look "safe"; ii) can then use those flexible tests as a legal defence to avoid punishment.
Myths of Modern Medicine: The Increase in the Human Life Span - due to Medicine or Political Social Reforms? This article explains that the great increase in human life span in the developed world (during the 19th and 20th centuries) was due to political social reforms like better sanitation systems, improved hygiene and nutrition.

Let's Talk Costs
Nobody in Washington gives a shit about the human costs. It's all about money to them but if you Google "Let's Talk Costs Blue Cross Blue Shield" you find that the medical industry steals 1/3 of every dollar Americans pay for health that through waste and fraud. Waste is fraud. And this is based on what waste and fraud gets reported. That 1/3 figure comes to $750 BILLION per year. That's more than we spend on national defense.
Conclusion: The American Medical Industrial Complex kills and steals more than Hitler's Nazis.
If you are too lazy to fact check me here's a start.
Medical errors kill enough people to fill four jumbo jets a week." says The Wall Street Journal
"200,000 to 400,000 deaths per year from preventable harm in hospitals" reports "A New, Evidence-based Estimate of Patient Harms Associated with Hospital Care" published in the Journal of Patient Safety September 2013.
"It seems that every time researchers estimate how often a medical mistake contributes to a hospital patient's death, the numbers come out worse." laments Scientific American Yet, with the notable exceptions of The Wall Street Journal, Scientific American and a tiny handful of other sources, the Main Stream Media is silent on this critical issue.
"When there is a plane crash in the U.S., even a minor one, it makes headlines. There is a thorough federal investigation, and the tragedy often yields important lessons for the aviation industry. Pilots and airlines thus learn how to do their jobs more safely.
The world of American medicine is far deadlier: Medical mistakes kill enough people each week to fill four jumbo jets. But these mistakes go largely unnoticed by the world at large, and the medical community rarely learns from them." The WSJ goes to the say in their excellent article titled "How to Stop Hospitals From Killing Us."
With 200,000 - 400,000 deaths per annum Medical Errors are now the 3rd leading cause of death right behind Heart disease with 597,689 deaths per annum and Cancer with 574,743 deaths per annum.
Doesn't the CDC have a responsibility to tell you that occasionally seeking conventional medical treatment will kill you faster than driving your car (34,080 deaths by auto accident 2102), day in and day out every day of your life?
Why the cover up?
