> Our national health and public health systems should primarily focus on prevention
In theory, this is obvious. The reality is no one, not a single leader - political or socio-celeb - is willing to give the American ppl the bad news. That is, yes the healthcare system needs work. However, the general health of the biggest component of that system (i.e., the patients) is 5x worse.
You can't have your cake and your low cost effective heamthcare too. If Obanma couldn't say it? Who will? Even the CDC and the Covid fear mongering rarely addressed the *preventable* pre-existing conditions. It's simple not PC to suggest that most people victimize themselves.
For years the healthcare system has been sold as The Problem. It's been demonized. Anyone expecting the citizens to pivot and suddenly be accountable for their diet and lifestyle is just damn naive, at best.
