The U.S. is one of the most unhealthy countries in the world. Food ingredient labels look like a page out of a chemistry textbook. Perhaps some “skepticism” about the things we put into our bodies is needed.
A breakdown of the composition of a 100% organic pea picked from a pea plant grown in the Garden of Eden would ALSO look like a page out of a chemistry textbook. Skepticism can be healthy, particularly when it targets specific aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, FDA policies, or the role of medical and insurance industries in U.S. health care. These areas genuinely warrant scrutiny and reform. However, conspiratorial pseudo-science is not productive. Given that RFK Jr. has expressed skepticism about vaccines in general (including the debunked theory linking vaccines to autism) and has also endorsed the conspiracy theory that 5G technology definitely (not “possibly”) contributes to illness, I, as a retired professor of anthropology, am not optimistic about Kennedy's potential nomination as HHS Secretary. Appointing a reformer to this role shouldn’t require resorting to individuals whose stances sometimes veer into scientifically unsound territory.
@@dichebach Well, it looks like we've got perhaps the first bona-fide tin-foil hat wearing 'crewmember,' picked like a poisoned pea for a major cabinet position. Any enthusiasm I had for any post-Biden administration just sailed right out of the window!
You underestimate the Intelligence of people. Most people can understand Millionaire CEO's can be of concern, while also understanding a guy with brainworms, no education in medicine or science & who believes children should not receive school vaccines is very dangerous. Polio anyone?????
RFK is a clear and present danger to the corruption and perverse financial conflicts of interest within all the useless 3 letter regulatory agencies. Outstanding pick. MAHA!!
That is not mutually exclusive with RFK being an ill-informed, conspiratorial loon without sufficient understanding of science, medicine or biology to serve effectively as a true reformer.
this is what's clear and stupidity: Evidence-based Health: how about this evidence ? A record number of Americans are suffering from chronic illnesses. One in six adults now has died of diabetes and by 2050, given current trends about 61% of adults are predicted to develop cardiovascular disease. So RFK understands this is a ticking Time Bomb for our families for our hospitals our doctors our nurses our local state and federal budgets and all of this is happening by the way as we're spending more on health care than ever before. Now in 2022 we have numbers that we spent 4.5 trillion or $3,493 per person on healthcare. That’s more than any developed Nation but without any better results so speaking of evidence, logic would indicate that what we've been doing isn't working
Chronic disease and obesity have doubled since 1960. How great is this industry really? People are tired of the idleness from our regulatory agencies while they look out for the industries they are supposed to regulate, then take high paying jobs with those agencies once their government positions end. He is not there to provide medical advice. He is there to ensure these agencies are operating ethically.
Its not lifespan thats important, its healthspan. What good is a long life if you are chronically sick and medicated? RFK Jr is a clear danger to the pharma business model which continues to keep people medicated for life.
Driscoll says RFK nomination is bad. That makes me think RFK is probably the best man for the job. Who, at this late date, believes these people? After COVID…. Who still believes these talking heads and big-pharma executives? Ridiculous.
Stockholders, would you rather make a few bucks off your pharma stocks or lose your health entirely to the current corrupt system. Always remember, you can't take it with you!
Nobody even knows who the current HHS Secretary is. What has current HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra done for the public? What are his qualifications? We need transparency, truth, accountability…something we have not had over the last 4 years. RFK, Jr's appointment will bring debate and sunlight to the corrupt bureaucracy.
These comments have all the wisdom and nuance of a kindergarten class. Let's check back in in four years and see your silly theories played out in practice.
As I've said elsewhere regarding any of the appointments, bringing in an outsider to shake things up is not unusual and necessary. He doesn't need detailed technical experience to set the tone, set the overarching requirements for protecting our people, and challenging the "experts" and business leaders.
is this Driscoll guy related to the Driscoll company that owns the raspberries and strawberries in the grocery stores? If he is, why the heck is a food company involved in a pharmacy executive position? This is why Americans do NOT trust these "experts".
Obesity is a sign of a prosperity, liberty, and a lack of self discipline. Famine, starvation and poverty are most common in authoritarian countries. Even homeless people in America are often overweight.
This guy being interviewed is neither a Dr nor PHD in science . Half the country has an opinion as well and placing RFK JR in there to seek answers is not a bad thing .
So says the Swamp Monster. Our country is sick, and it's people like this who wants us to stay that way. I have two different cancers right now, and I can thank people like this. Driscoll, when you meet your maker, you have a lot of explaining to do.
I wish we could go back to simpler, more level-headed times in healthcare when the highly-qualified, highly-experienced leaders were funding tons of experimental gain-of-function research in Chinese laboratories that caused a global pandemic.
I going in for surgery and I don’t trust my doctor so I’m going to have my buddy who is a Best Buy manager perform the surgery and just have the doctor in the room to try to walk him through it
Trying to attribute the gains in global life expectancy to the pharmaceutical industry is laughable. Virtually all those gains are the result of indoor plumbing, electricity, and increased hygiene standards around the world.
Dear fellow interested citizen and voter, this is from Wikipedia and regards HHS under the Biden admin: Xavier Becerra, serving as the 25th United States secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), is an American lawyer and politician. He previously served as the attorney general of California from January 2017 until March 2021. He represented Downtown Los Angeles in Congress from 1993 to 2017. Becerra was chairman of the House Democratic Caucus from 2013 to 2017. He is married to physician Carolina Reyes. (This is from the Wikipedia article on Becerra, as of today. None of this is my opinion. It's straight from Wikipedia; I only distilled it down to fewer words.)
Dudes talking about how they have extended life expectancy. Doesn’t mean anything if your quality of life is horrendous. People feel worse than ever and we’re sick of the status quo. We want something better. Easy for this guy to say when he has a net worth of 20 million.
Welp America voted him in with Trump so yes if you’re a corruptionist playing a role in the current healthcare system at the top you should be concerned
He’s giving his take from business industry yet not a health advocate and he’s not a doctor or a PhD in science…the same garbage foods in Walgreens contribute to the epidemic they are agreeing exists.
Isn't it weird that nobody ever mentions that Biden has the power to end the Trump threat by merely exercising the executive powers that the Supreme Court gave him?

Absolutely....
@@SirDerp909Think that was you buddy 😂
Well that's the FDA not HHS. Trump doesn't want RFK messing with his Big Macs apparently.

Clear and present danger to the pharm bottom lines.
@@arethereanyuniquehandles Yes, to big pharma and self-service, deep-state bureaucrats like Driscoll.
do you realize that RFK and this admin itself is millionaires/billionaires?
As long as he gets rid of the Polio vaccine.
Yes. A clear and present danger to their profits and bottom line.

He wants people to be healthy naturaly like Europe.
You dont think we belive in evidence based science in Europe🙂?
Yes, Europe bans a lot of chemicals we use in our foods. Bread is so much more healthier in Europe.

Big pharma mad 😂
Absolutely...A bunch of Investors in Pharmaceuticals just dumped stocks.
Priceless!
And fake news sad.
yeah these doctors and companies would have us all on anti depressants that you cant get off i think we should try something new MAHA
Maybe if they gave out good drugs people would be on their side 😂but they don’t so screw them 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Here's an idea.... invite RFK Jr himself on the show and ask him the questions directly.
RFKJr is the right guy at the right time.
RFK, the American people support you. Go get-em! 😂
Oh big pharma doesn't like him ..
That's all I needed to hear to know I'm glad rfk is in
KENNEDY IS OUR remedy, to make America healthy again. Love RFK. JR. HE'S SMART AND WILL HELP THE PEOPLE. STAY SAFE. GOD BLESS.
clear and present danger to one of the worlds best industries tells you everything you need to know
CNBC is such a joke. Please crumble into irrelevance.
He's decently a clear and present danger you your profits!! Prepare for it

Ridiculous.
CNBC activists posing as journalists. Hard pass.
He’s a clear and present danger to exposing the corruption and lack of ethics in corporate greed.
He's a threat to corporate profits. He's a blessing for the health of our children.
Funny but fact-based, science-based medicine went AWOL during COVID pandemic.
Actually, it started in the 1980s. But it when into hyperdrive and Orwellian in during the COVID pandemic.
Tough gentlman, You'll live with it whether you like it or not.😃 I 've had to live with your horrible decision making for years, Now it's YOUR turn.
You know where these guys get their paychecks from when they are against health
RFK ALL THE WAYYYYY!!!
O my more lies bout this man who cares...u all need to b brought up on charges...u all lie
These guys completely misrepresenting what RFK Jr stands for and creating a strawman.
Stockholders, would you rather make a few bucks off your pharma stocks or lose your health entirely to the current corrupt system. Always remember, you can't take it with you!
RFK will embarrass them with what he finds and publishes.
YEAAAA BUDDY BRING IT ON RFK….🤓🤓🤓🤓
The guy who’s saying we want to make America healthy is a danger? They cant be serious.
Is he going to fast track medication that removes worms from brains?
They sound scared.
Guys… watch RFKs latest interviews, it would answer a lot of your questions
Nobody even knows who the current HHS Secretary is. What has current HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra done for the public? What are his qualifications? We need transparency, truth, accountability…something we have not had over the last 4 years. RFK, Jr's appointment will bring debate and sunlight to the corrupt bureaucracy.
This makes about as much sense as hiring a believer in chemtrails as the chief pilot of an airline!
If this dude from big pharma is against RFK, that makes me like him more.
I wonder how much these guys have in pharma stock 😂 that’s the only reason they care 😂😂
Loving the comment section.
These comments have all the wisdom and nuance of a kindergarten class. Let's check back in in four years and see your silly theories played out in practice.
Living longer doesn’t mean living better. We just extend weakness and misery after 60 with pills instead of exercise and healthy eating.
Of course John is skeptical because it cuts into pharmacy profits!!!!
The network that pays its bills by allowing big pharma to advertise on their network is skeptical of RFK. Shocking I never saw that coming.
As I've said elsewhere regarding any of the appointments, bringing in an outsider to shake things up is not unusual and necessary. He doesn't need detailed technical experience to set the tone, set the overarching requirements for protecting our people, and challenging the "experts" and business leaders.
Why are American taxpayers supporting financially?These pharmaceutical companies can be encharged the highest rates in the world
The only thing dangerous is these millionares and thier profits. Thats all they really care about
Both of y'all sound speechless and it's great 😅
Guy on the left is more qualified to run HHS than RFK JR.
Corporate power against someone? I'm for then.
Joe starting to worry about his MAGA vote: didn’t trust Fauci so now he gets RFK Jr.
Flat-earthers out in force in comments today 😂
The host seems like he’s nervous he’s been pushing Trump for years and now he’s got admit on TV he was wrong repeatedly.
Joe doesn't look that healthy himself lol
Meanwhile, the average Italian lives 3 years longer than the American
is this Driscoll guy related to the Driscoll company that owns the raspberries and strawberries in the grocery stores? If he is, why the heck is a food company involved in a pharmacy executive position? This is why Americans do NOT trust these "experts".
We also have an epidemic of stupidity and paranoia.
Distrust Faucci? What flavor of Kool-Aid was that?
Obesity is a sign of a prosperity, liberty, and a lack of self discipline. Famine, starvation and poverty are most common in authoritarian countries. Even homeless people in America are often overweight.
RFK is a danger because he did not believe the liars!
We got two idiots here who clearly haven’t listened to anything RFK has said. & Mr Walgreens is clearly so afraid of loosing money
This guy being interviewed is neither a Dr nor PHD in science . Half the country has an opinion as well and placing RFK JR in there to seek answers is not a bad thing .
RFK will have a fully staffed board of advisors
So says the Swamp Monster. Our country is sick, and it's people like this who wants us to stay that way. I have two different cancers right now, and I can thank people like this. Driscoll, when you meet your maker, you have a lot of explaining to do.

Maybe we'll miss out on Soma or Soylent Green.😊
Clear and present danger to the profits of the food and pharma industries
RFK: a narcissistic rich kid with bad ideas, underdeveloped emotions, and an outsized ego.
I going in for surgery and I don’t trust my doctor so I’m going to have my buddy who is a Best Buy manager perform the surgery and just have the doctor in the room to try to walk him through it

Unbelievable Gaslighting, Cut the cord and switch to Schwab network
He drove Walgreens into the ground that why he doesn’t have a real job now.
Your food industry is certainly not the envy of the world.
Its actually ridiculed.
Boo freaking hoo. We will not listen to the establishment any longer. Shut up
Yup. The jig is up. How is DEI making the country healthier. And life expectancy is going down now in the US, not up.
Yup, it certainly is a threat to big harma and their $$$
He is a clear and present danger to your corrupt industry and the poison you push.
COME ON MAN you really mean and CLEAR and PRESENT DANGER to walgreens BOTTOM LINE is more like it
This clown from Walgreens. He's worried about PROFITS, not keeping America healthy
US pharmaceutical envy of the world? Time you get a reality check and own up to your responsibilities...
This is just karma. I don't care how powerful you think you are. You can't keep expecting to profit from making people sick?

Walgreens closing stores they are scared big pharmaceutical companies lose money
Life span increased the most by reducing infant mortality. How, washing your hands during the child birth/care process.
He’s giving his take from business industry yet not a health advocate and he’s not a doctor or a PhD in science…the same garbage foods in Walgreens contribute to the epidemic they are agreeing exists.
I would like to see you have RFK on the program so he can debunk everything you’re saying. You’re out of your debts
Joe is concerned about his shares on pharmacy companies and health insurance companies.
Isn't it weird that nobody ever mentions that Biden has the power to end the Trump threat by merely exercising the executive powers that the Supreme Court gave him?
They just lie and lie and some of these idiots believe it all.
Was fauci with the right knowledge
He's a danger to their pocketbook
Hey Mr Driscoll, you are a real concern. Lets talk about the aduse of statin drugs.
Driscoll better have those bags under his eyes looked at
Driscoll is a high level puppet. It's all about money,not health. He is just another liar for hire.
Oh yes , you can trust this man , for sure .
Sounds like Joe is not agreeing with his Bro Trump on the RFK.Jr. pick.
Self important person who doesnt understand that even the way he forms sentences shows he thinks "HIS" industry is more important than it is.
You can always spot a faux intellectual when they use the phrase "clear and present" to modify the word "danger."
You can tell who's funded by who here. Track record of lies.
