First of all, it's not "health" care. That's a euphemism created by the medical industry to suggest you need lifelong, constant care in order to maintain your health, which is untrue. Living healthily maintains your health.In the past, before like the 90s or 2000s, it was always just called "medical" care, which is more honest and implies it's just for serious interventions like broken bones and heart attacks. The US spends way too much on medical care, like 20% of GDP, which would be around $6 trillion per year. That's way too much. Government needs to end Medicare, Medicaid, and the VA Health System immediately. No more funding. If people want medicine, they can pay for it themselves, out of pocket -- insurance must be made illegal to prevent racketeering -- and people can negotiate with a physician or hospital for the medical intervention they wish to purchase.And no more "care" for chronic illnesses. Only acute medical problems need treatment (and it's "treatment," not "care"), like broken bones. Type II diabetes shouldn't be treated. Neither should any other chronic disorder or long-term illness like cancer.When you get a long-term illness, that's just a sign your time is up. This would save society tons of money, create a healthier population, and end a lot of corruption in the government-corporate alliance.

That's always how it goes. Any profession where its workers are supposed to be "heroes" attracts the shittiest people of all.So, time to end modern medicine. Make it so small you can drown it in a bathtub and kill it off, like the Republicans used to say back when they were still libertarians.And if you oppose what I say, and believe that medical care should be funded, then you're just admitting you need long-term care to live and therefore you are too weak to live on your own.

>>525795457>The US spends way too much on medical care, like 20% of GDP, which would be around $6 trillion per year. That's way too much.And if we end medical care, that $6 trillion can be redirected toward useful, productive endeavors that expand the economy. No, managing" diabetes does not contribute to economic activity or a healthy economy. It's the same as pushing paper. Only producing real goods and services is economic activity.Ending modern medical care can put $6 trillion per year into infrastructure projects, scientific and technological research, building mines and other expensive extractive projects that cost billions to start up, building weapons (which are ALWAYS in demand and always will be until everlasting world peace is achieved lol), building giant factories with 10 million square foot buildings, etc. etc.It's time to get to work on REAL WORK, not medicine. Let's spend our national wealth smartly like the Chinese do.
