Healthcare and you

Nothing is more important than your health. Young people take it for granted. At some point we all lose our health, we can't turn back the clock, but we can avoid mistakes that others have made. Your health is worth a million dollars. There's not a faster way to lose it than an auto-accident. Get T-boned and you'll endure back pain for the rest of your life and you'll never be able to play sports, dance or lift anything ever again. Jump off a twelve foot wall and your knees could be ruined. The body is fragile. Bone is soft and porous. Drugs, any drugs, muscle building steroids, weight loss drugs, antibiotics, even aspirin are toxic to the body. Take too much or take them for too long and you'll destroy your liver and/or kidneys. Eat salty junk food and don't drink water, drink sodas, you'll have kidney stones, ooooooh, how painful. Become sedentary, overweight, you'll have gall stones, then clog your arteries and die of a heart attack. Brush your teeth and gums twice a day or your gums will receed and your teeth will fall out at fifty. Get too many innoculations and you'll over stim your immune system and get asthma or an autoimmune disease. Avoid stressful jobs. You can burn the candle at both ends in your twenties, but in your forties, you have to slow down unless your a man of steel, few are. If you run your immune system down and get sick, stay in bed a few days, let your immune system re-organize itself and reset. Sickness is a warning, if you don't let your immune system recharge, you take the risk of getting worse diseases like cancer or Lupus. Don't take drugs, not even aspirin if you can avoid it. Antibiotics don't work against viruses, if you take them you'll just be telling your immune system that you don't trust it, it doesn't work right. That's a bad message. Never underestimate the power of positive thinking, or negative thinking.

Modern medicine is a con, somewhat.

Hospitals charge $20 for a Tylenol, $500 for a wheelchair, $4,000 for a CT Scan, and nobody is "cured". They come back time and time again, we call them "frequent flyers." The problem is that the sick don't have to pay for their care, so there's no cost controls. The taxpayers pay the inflated bill. Doctors aren't Gods. Little can be done for people who have AIDS, hard tumor Cancer, Hepatitis C, or any of thirty auto-immune diseases. Luckily, AIDS has been exaggerated by research Doctors who claim it will become a mortal epidemic, so they can get those lucrative research grants. Pharmaceutical companies hire a research doctor to claim that their expensive drug will protect you from cancer, or alzheimers, or heart disease. Newspapers play along with them because they want to sell papers. The government wants any excuse to increase taxes, it's for AIDS research. Notice, a cure is never found for AIDS or cancer, but you'll always read about some researcher who's oh, so close. Some things are beyond technology. Most of the cost of modern medicine is for diagnostic testing, and the treatment of symptoms. Only a few diseases actually have cures. Cancer can be cut out, and poisoned with chemo, but it grows back. Old age will cause strokes and heart disease and you can't turn back the clock. Drug addicts and alcoholics can be dried out but will always be back for another expensive round of pointless treatments, or have a headon collision with one of your loved ones. Only about ten percent of the patients in the hospital can actually be helped in the long run. Your tax dollars arent' being wasted, exactly, but if you knew how little they helped, you'd realize that your money benefits you and your family much more than the sick. Stop the ripoff and fraud. Obamacare will bankrupt the country so quick it will cause a panic. The government is too corrupt to regulated healthcare. Put it back in the private sector. Bust the monopoly, allow nurses to practice, prescribe, and order labs. Abolish Medicare and Medicaid, it's costing you a Trillion dollars a year and you don't get those benefits. Let everybody pay for their own healthcare. Competition will bring down the cost and make it affordable to all. Join the Men's Union.

You're in a feedback loop.

The more sick people you help, the more sick people there are. Our society is getting sicker, not healthier. For instance, if you really wanted to make a fat person, well. You'd have to make him lose weight, pick tomatoes on a farm or something like that. Giving him $20,000 in diagnostic tests doesn't help him at all. It's just a con. Really sick people get disability, the free ride on your tax dollars. They can breed like crazy. I met a woman who had four kids, the eldest was dying of muscular distrophy. Dying horribly at sixteen. It's torture. She said, "all my kids have muscular distrophy." I was shocked. She carries a bad gene, knows it, and still has more kids? What an evil moron. Most diseases have a genetic predisposition, it runs in the families. What an idiotic breeding program--paying sick morons to breed with welfare and medicaid. Ten thousand people will die of AIDS in the U.S. this year. Ten times that will die of diabetes, or some other auto-immune disease: lupus, M.S., Lou Gehrigs disease, rheumatoid arthritis, M.G., L.S. and twenty others. An auto-immune disease is your own immune system attacking some cell type in your body. There's no cure. Twenty million people in the U.S. have an autoimmune disease, and the government is spending billions on 10,000 AIDS patients? The gays have a good lobby. There's a genetic predisposition for diseases, but there's another common cause, stress. Work too hard and wham. There goes your health. The more sick you have to pay for, the more you have to work, the more people get sick. It's a feedback loop.

The private sector worker pays for all the sick people. And there's no cure so there's more sick people every year. Health care costs are skyrocketing. There's more diagnostic procedures but only a few illnesses can be cured. A total knee for a medicare patient costs taxpayers $35,000. When a knee goes, the other one will go next year, then the hips. Diabetics get amputations, $15,000 each time, dialysis treatments cost $100,000 a year; dialysis dimentia will make them crazy in eight years. Then, once an elderly person's health starts to go, he dies within five years. The money is better spent by you on your family. Cancer treatments $50,000, quaduple bypass $75,000, re-occurent pneumonia $50,000 a year. Life support-$10,000 a day. Physical therapy for the stroke victim, $1,000 a day for two months, then, oh oh, he has another stroke. Drug rehab for the homeless, $20,000 each, per year. Now the baby boom generation approaches old age. You'll have to cover all those expensive procedures in an exploding population of elderly retirees. You'll be besieged with liberal propaganda."You can't deny the needy equal access to health care, can you? Are you that mean-spirited?" Hello slave. How about another tax raise, you greedy corporation. Want to stay healthy? Don't get married and have kids, they'll drag you down. Play sports as much as possible. Keep the weight off. Join the Men's Union if you want to have a chance. The Men's Union will organize vacations that will be really fun, healthy, and cheap.
