I could as easily ask for your proof, and is there no wisdom in the age old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure?
Well, I don’t disagree with you there, but really, just think about the costs of preventive care and compare it to the cost of those few that actually benefit from it.
I don’t expect you to believe it but you should at least give it a reasonable benefit of the doubt. Maybe just research the preventive benefit costs, or look at your own family and friends. How many go to the Doctor for preventative medicine and what are the costs? How many actually really need care because of that?
There are other solutions other than what Doctors proscribe. They do tend to go for the most advantageous solution to them ya know.
Heh, I might add that the proscription back then did not include cost...
