   The younger generations are weaker? I think that's what you mean, because I   
   think I see that. They're being dumbed down, and their health is probably   
   going through a similar process.

    RL> No.  I don't either.  We don't have a "health care" system.  We have a

   The first clue was when the Pharmaceutical CEOs began attending private   
   conferences with the CEOs of Pepsi, Coke, Hershey, with a topic of "economics."

   Prescribing meds is how they justify everything; more appointments, more lab   
   work, more meds to compensate for side effects from the first meds, more   
   referral appointments, etc. Being a physician is a lucrative career.
