It is very important to understand that everything from criminal activity, to unhealthy lifestyles, are all primarily education relation.

This has been confirmed time after time after time.

But the last 30 yars of the anti intellectual Republcian party has set us back decades. Had JFK and Bobby Kennedy survived we would be years ahead of where we are intellectually as a society and our problems would not be so bad.

And regardless of what anyone says, the primary solution is massive funding of educational programs from pre school through a university education.

One cannot act on things they do not undestand.

Which is why the right wingers are usually wrong on everything.

Health care is a societal burden whether it is privatised or socialized.

I get messages on my phone from nursing associations who tell me my insurance pays for their services, which are largely educational support.

I don't return the calls because I am educated on healthy living and it concerns me that this may be a common expense running up our health care costs. I've checked with a few other people and it seems to be common.

On the other hand it seems any comprehensive plan for health care should include provisions which reward patients who take positive steps to improve their health, or steps to reduce risks.<<
