I wrote one of my Masters Thesis on "The Unknown X". Kant referred to his "Transcendental Object" as the "Unknown X" sometimes. The "Unknown X" was the highest Ideal that pure theoretical reason was always directed toward, the source of all inspiration and greatness, the foundation of the creative intuitions of space and time, the source of sound judgement, the origin of the categorical imperative. "Never treat humans merely as a means, but as an end also".

US healthcare system is so backward. The main problem with it is that it is primarily profit oriented and not care oriented. As it stands now for people who are not seniors and not on welfare, it should be called US health profit system.

"I am X the Unknown :-)"

I got a smile when I read that, as I thought you were X!
