Autoimmune skin disorders

Will this cream help those of us ith auto immune skin disorders - Like Lichen and Planus PLC/PLEVA???

Blockbuster Product?

The potential of fluorouracil cream (fluorouracilcream.com) is extraordinary. Given the size of the anti-aging, wrinkle-removal product sales, in the U.S. and worldwide (over $12 billion in 2005 according to The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery), this substance could become a blockbuster.

Do we need more poison in our water supply?

It's already being documented that hormones from birth-control pills' residual estrogen are affecting fish and children's sexual organ development and male fertility. Now, big pharma is proposing a new and dangerous use for their radioactive poison, Fluorouracil not as a life-saving, carefully controlled drug, but as a wrinkle beauty aid! This is INSANE! Are we going to have to start using bottled water to bathe with too? Big pharma spends billions on field presentations to doctors and grants to large government and educational groups to "purchase" opinions, as well as funding studies to produced biased scientific outcomes. If President Soetoro, er.. Obama believes so much in big pharma, why doesn't he proudly place his daughters at the head of line for a series of Gardasil (HPV Vaccine) shots? As soon as big pharma produces a new Swine Flu vaccine, let's see of our Dear Leader will step up to the plate and have his entire family inoculated, starting with rolling up his sleeve first? I doubt his family will do it. Just like Michelle planted an organic garden and orders the White House chef to use only organic foods, while Dear Leader promotes laws and tax benefits to corporations that irradiate our chicken and grow genetically modified Frankenfoods for our families' consumption.
