Legendary ‘Cheers’ Actor Says ‘Last People’ He Would Trust With His Health Is ‘Big Pharma and Big Government’

Legendary “Cheers” actor Woody Harrelson told Bill Maher the “last people” he would trust with his own health is “Big Pharma and Big Government” — and he explained why.

During the 61-year-old actor’s appearance on the “Club Random with Bill Maher” podcast Sunday, the TV actor and host discussed the response to the COVID-19 pandemic over the last two-plus years. The two agreed that trusting the pharmaceutical companies and government rather than a person’s own doctor is bizarre. The host asked his guest would it be that crazy that the pharma industry wouldn’t say advocate for “more boosters than were necessary” for profit?

“Like most Americans would not normally trust the government with helping them,” Harrelson replied. “Like what does the government actually do to help you?”

“They help big corporations, industries, all the people that got…those people into Congress, or ultimately to become President,” he added. “Those people all got to get taken care of.”

Maher repeated that American’s “don’t trust the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). We have the polling on this.”

“Okay so here’s the CDC promoting that we have to do this all these things,” the actor shared. “I don’t like profiteering in war. Think of the billions of dollars that have gone to Big Pharma.”

“Back to my original point, the last people I would trust with my health is Big Pharma and Big Government because neither one of those strike me as caring entities,” the “Zombieland” star added. “They’re all about profit, they’re all about profit. It’s obscene the profit they’ve made.”

At one point, the HBO host pointed out the fact that there was never a proposal from the government or CDC to handle the pandemic “internally.”

“There was no even suggestion if we handle this internally by making our immune systems stronger,” Maher explained. “Not just with diet, but some basic things you can do… instead of locking yourself away.”

Harrelson agreed and noted things like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine were considered “ridiculous.”

“There was only one thing that would work and that’s the vaccine,” Woody explained. “And so ultimately because of that, billions of dollars was made.”

Back in the 1990’s (?) none of the LA west-side elites would vaccinate their kids to go to school. It used to be a big deal & “cool” for them to be anti-vaxxers.

Amazing how they all came out in favor of the China virus vax.

Woody’s on to something. He’s a whack job but give him his due like a blind squirrel finding an acorn.

Completely missing the point that - in most cases - one’s “own doctor” is a fully owned and operated employee of said entities.

Exactly. Forget he’s a Hollywood celebrity for a minute. He’s absolutely correct.

At no time did the government ever mention diet, exercise health conscious lifestyles or anything except “ stay in your homes and take our experimental shots” - buy Amazon but don’t touch the boxes cuz you’ll die. Wipe down your groceries or you’ll die. Wear this useless diaper on your face or you’re literally killing my grandma.

Meanwhile, it appears that this experimental “vaccine” actually makes you MORE likely to catch the China Virus.

one clarification I would offer to Woody is, the DOCTORS are as dirty as big pharma because they’re all controlled by big pharma and most are owned by hospitals which are controlled by big pharma. We must extricate ourselves FROM the medical system which is essentially wicked. I know many here may want to dispute that but, when you dig down just a bit into the details you can’t deny it.

I heard he’s an anarchist so that wouldn’t surprise me that he hates government.

Among all the reasons I knew the COVID stuff was a sham was the mask thing. They mandated masks everywhere and never bothered ONCE to put out any mask protocols, like don't wear the same filthy mask every day and don't touch your mask every 5 minutes with your filthy hands etc.

If an organization like the CDC really truly believed that the masks were necessary and effective, they would have been very specific about how to wear them. Instead we got: "You can make a mask out of anything and who cares how you wear it."

Doctors do not get paid by either entity so are not employees

Sounds to me like maybe, Woody has had his eyes opened. A little. Slightly. Maybe.

Well at least he’s consistent. Lefties love Big Government when they are in charge.
