- Below is a note from Stephen Fox who
has gallantly fought for the lives of the people of New Mexico from the
chemical poison aspartame for some years. We expected what happened.

-
- We understand the problem. Think of
New Mexico as a battlefield where a plague rages and evil forces hold back
the remedy. William Howard Taft said of a battlefield: "A place
of settlement of disputes .. gradually yielding to arbitral courts of justice."
On this battlefield there are no courts of justice because the evil forces
control and influence. How shall we save the people from this blazing
epidemic? We must increase the good forces, more help from the multitudes
in New Mexico. Come forth and demand consumer protection.
-
- The Constitution grants us the right
to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It's impossible while being
poisoned. New Mexicans and all people be outraged by what happened with
the EIB where these officials should have had with courage, a gallant
"glad heart" and integrity given due process to serve the people
of the state and allowed the hearings they twice voted for. Abraham Lincoln
said cowardice is to sin by silence. It's to know what is right and not
do it. Five officials turned their heads leaving only one lone shining
example of honor. Come forth the whistleblowers, the insiders, the strategists,
and the multitudes. This was just a first battle, now lets win this war
in New Mexico, for if we win it there we can win it in all states and countries.

- >From Stephen Fox
-
- By denying a petition to ban aspartame
in New Mexico by a vote of 5-1 July 6, the New Mexico Environmental Improvement
Board has essentially given a carte blanche to the multinational corporate
powers involved that knowingly add aspartame/methanol/formaldehyde to 6000
manufactured food products in the USA. The Navajo member of the EIB, Harold
Tso, was the only one to vote to have hearings.
-
- New Mexico Statute 25-2-13 clearly gives
complete regulatory powers to the EIB and to no other state entity for
food protection. The EIB voted twice before to convene hearings, and only
under pressure from the Ajinomoto Corporation of Japan, Coca Cola, Pepsi
Cola, and the Calorie Control Council, did the EIB capitulate.
-
- This is a very sad day for consumer protection
efforts in New Mexico, and the only hope in this context is the reintroduction
of a bill to ban aspartame in the 2007 New Mexico Legislature, when no
doubt the same corporate forces will be out in even fuller force to manipulate
the legislative committees into acquiescence.
-
- What it clarifies to me is that corporate
power has run amok in the USA and there is almost no chance than anyone,
through state or federal government, can prevent the continued neurodegenerative
and carcinogenic effects of Aspartame having been forced through the FDA
in 1981 by political rather than medical or scientific means.
-
- EIB Chairman Gay Dillingham, after having
received hundreds of emails from victims, physicians, and many other New
Mexicans in support of a complete ban on Aspartame, used the phrase "I
do this with a heavy heart," when she made the motion to deny the
petition. The motion was seconded by Dolores Herrera of Albuquerque, who
also said she was doing so with a "heavy heart."
-
- One has to wonder whether there is any
consumer protection authority remaining in the State of New Mexico when
what we observed today was a complete and total failure thereof.
-
- No-one seems to be willing or able to
stand up for protecting the people of New Mexico.
-
- When Dr. Gary King, with his Ph.D. in
Chemistry and his extensive legal experience, is sworn in as the next Attorney
General we will have an Attorney General. who can truly protect the people
of New Mexico and establish a long overdue national precedent to rid our
state and our nation of an artificial sweetener which is metabolized as
methanol and formaldehyde. Plaintiff lawyers might achieve this more rapidly
than anyone else by implementing punitive and exemplary damage suits against
aspartame manufacturers and corporate endusers, comparable to the Tobacco
suits in the 1990's.
