of course i have an argument If you do, you lack the ability to actually communicate it in a written forum or the willingness to do so. and if you knew even one iota of facts on the matter you would recognize that. It would be difficult for anyone reading your posts to know what it is that you know or argue since your writing level is around that of a sixth grader. I'd consider taking an expository writing class if I were you. I don't doubt that you have some insight into the matter, you are simply unable to share it in a way that can be understood. human beings propensity to rely on quick fixes and unwillingness to engagein healthy behaviours is a given. I've said as much about modern Americans. it does not explain away how absolutely disfunctional our non-health care system is. I agree it is dysfunctional. Where I disagree is that it can be made better with more government control than it already has. In fact, I would argue that government intervention is the primary driver behind its inefficiency. We have the best system in the world for treating acute surgical emergencies and a terrible system for treating chronic medical conditions which are better dealt with in terms of environmental changes, lifestyle changes, nutritional changes. Our doctors are trained to treat with one of two weapons, drugs or surgery. They are largely ignorant of or discount the foundational concepts of nutritional physiology. Every year they kill people with unnecessary drugs and surgery.

<<it does not explain away how absolutely disfunctional our non-health care system is.>> A great example of this was all the effort expended by government to cram HIPPA down providers throats....while not addressing the need for a uniform information/electronic medical record standard or platform (the absence of which is among the most glaring quality deficiencies in the entire healthcare system). Government does not have to be the problem per se, but in the US it clearly has been, to a very large extent.
