Now…can we just keep people from asking the 1001 follow ups about what’s the best food/exercise/way to get off the sofa because they read something about something by their uncle’s cousin’s brother online?
I sometimes feel a majority of us (myself included at times) need the internal voice equivalent of a grandpa telling us to quit navel gazing get out side and split the damn wood (so to speak).
Two things:
1. Personal morality has virtue but does not fix broken systems. Our healthcare system is broken.
2. Personal morality has virtue, but everyone dies, regardless of peak health. Leonard Schwartz died of lymphoma at 84. Roy Hilligen fell and hit his head at age 85, causing a blood clot in his brain. He died on the operating table. Paul Anderson died at 61, after a long struggle with complications from a kidney replacement he had at 50. Unless we die suddenly, we will all face the medical system.
3. People take better care of themselves in countries with national health systems. America is the only First World nation without national healthcare. It’s also the sickest, fattest First World nation, and second place isn’t close. Correlation is not causation, but it’s a striking correlation nonetheless.
