This is important.
Robert Kennedy Junior is working with states like Arizona to ban sodas and unhealthy foods from being used by the SNAP program.
The government should not be financing the poisoning of our children and Kennedy rightly points out that the only reason politicians have been allowing this is because they have been bought and purchased by soda companies.
Sheer corruption.
"What we're doing to our children is criminal. We are now the sickest country in the world.
When my Uncle was President three percent of Americans had chronic disease, today sixty percent have chronic disease.
Our autism rates have now gone from one in ten thousand to one in every thirty-one in my kids' generation…
The diabetes rate has exploded.
When I was a kid an average pediatrician would see a single case of juvenile diabetes in a forty or fifty-year career…
Thirty-eight percent of teens now are diabetic or prediabetic…Fifty percent of our adult population…
This affects everything in our country.
It affects our national security seventy-four percent of American kids cannot qualify for military service.
When my Uncle was President we spent zero nationally on chronic disease.
There were no treatments…
Today we spend one point three trillion dollars a year…It is bankrupting our country…
We finally have an opportunity to address this and it's happening at the grassroots.
People are saying we are not gonna take it anymore. We are not gonna be mass poisoned by an industry that is that has captured our regulatory agencies…
We have ten thousand ingredients in our foods and the Europeans have four hundred…
And that's because we have a captured regulatory agency.
They've captured our politicians…
I want to challenge the press…
If you find a legislature or political leader in this state, go out and find one after this meeting who did not support this Snap waiver legislation, ask them why get them to offer you…a rational explanation…I guarantee you they will not come up with one.
Why are we paying for sugar drinks that are poisoning our kids and giving them diabetes?
If you want a coke God bless you go get one…
But the taxpayers should not be paying that in a nutrition program. This is supplemental nutrition…
There are no nutrients in that soda.
There are none…And why are we paying for that?
We're gonna pay for it twice…We're gonna pay for it now and then we're gonna pay for it with the diabetes bills later on.
What is the real reason you voted against this bill and do your investigation and find out how much money they are taking from the soda industry…
There is no reason to vote against this bill except for sheer corruption. Because you've been bought off through a legalized system of legalized bribery…
And I'm very proud of these legislators…and senators for standing up for the health of the people of Arizona…We need…
I want to thank President Trump. President Trump has promised to make America great and that means he has to make us strong and we cannot be a strong nation if we do not have a strong people.
He's promised to restore to the American public. The promise of the American dream…But a healthy person has a thousand dreams. A sick person only has one. And we have sixty percent of the people in this country today who only have one dream. And that's that they can make it through the day without discomfort that they can survive to see their children grow…
And we need to take care of these little ones.
It is our obligation."
Robert Kennedy JR is on the move and working to make our children healthy again.
They are our nation's most precious commodity and should be protected at all costs.
They are the future.
