I understand why the doctors on the thread are upset. but i think HLTH is part of the solution not the problem.

Perhaps you may remember from physics, the "third law of thermodynamics: in any pressurized system, an reorganization that reduces the pressure will be viable"

The health delivery system is definitely pressured by competing needs and interests but, most definitely, there is a great deal of waste that has nothing to do with the development or delivery of services. HLTH will make the system 10-20% more efficient and that will reduce at least part of the pressure. FWIW.

No. I am saying, let mother nature take its course and not prolong the life with artifical gadgets.

tony, does your opinion extend to prematurely-born babies, people with serious diseases, and victims of accidents and violent crimes -- aren't these only mother nature trying to weed out the weak? Obviously you are young and have not yet lost anyone close. Don't be surprised to find your views change when you do.
