A random YouTuber made an astute observation regarding the medical and pharmaceutical industry’s symbol of a divine rod with 2 snakes curled around it. The snakes represent duplicity and deceit, as is the case with today’s mainstream “healthcare” that costs an arm and a leg while delivering almost no cures to chronic issues, while the rod represents hubris and unwarranted pride.
Pharmaceuticals and their legal drug peddlers think of themselves as gods, which is clearly enshrined in legal immunity / indemnification / “tort reform” (Thankfully, tort reform has made little headway) in the event something goes wrong. Indeed, “things go wrong” all the time as medical malpractice kills 250K people per year in America.
A long time ago, I believed that universal healthcare would be good for our nation’s citizens. Being a data junkie, I looked at other countries’ metrics and mistakenly assigned their longevity/superior results to universal healthcare. A rookie mistake in statistics.
It is apparent to me now that those citizens of Japan, Switzerland, etc, live longer not due to UHC, but largely due to healthier lifestyles and consuming actual food instead of industrialized poisons, the results of which modern “medicine” only seeks to mask the symptoms.
Giving everyone more pills “for free” is not going to make them live longer or happier lives.
