| On second thought, I was wrong about no comment needed. This illustrates some very troublesome things about human nature. I have close relatives struggling with this.
First, and most obvious, is a profit-based health care system has problems. Anything that cannot generate revenues tends to be ignored - at best - and destructive behavior can even be encouraged due to the profit motive and addictive properties of much of today's food.
Second, even though the results of some diseases can be well known and extremely troublesome - even catastrophic - modifying our behavior is next to impossible for a great many people. In many cases, there is a very real question about how much free will we have.
So - a far from simple problem.
But - this picture is one that many people still need to see - and think about. | |
