Saludos from Ole Mexico. Everytime I go to the USA, I am shocked that everyone thinks that enough and the right PILLS will fix any mess. I know many places here in Mexico were there are dozens of people that are 100 years PLUS and have their teeth, and they don't have a modern pharmacy within 76 miles. None of these people are on a cane, walker, no knee replacements, no by pass surgery, no Parkinson, Alzheimer's and little cancer. Why does it seem that Americans are so SICK.??? Doesn't take a 5th grade education in Bali to figure out this poor child should have never been given these drugs.

Hola!

It is nice to hear the voice of reason from a Southern neighbor.

The USA is a drugged nation. That is hard to deny.

It's time we all went back to natural ways of living, without pharmaceutical crutches.

Everyone doesn't. I personally strongly resist a pharmaceutical solution to whatever I am at the doctor for. I make them really sell me on something if I actually do need it, and I do my homework about whatever it is that they want to give me.

This seems to surprise doctors, since most people expect to be given a perscription for something, and patients often seem to insist on it. I've seen too many people walk around like zombies and (particularly the elderly) fall down regularly as the direct result of excessive meds.

This drugging of children to make their behavior more convenient for adults is barbaric.

Yep.....drugged America. I have a well to do friend who is on a number of medications (age 61) and thinks "Dr. Jill" is just the greatest doc.....my friend refuses to look at alternatives. And, she continues to develop problems....the latest....vertigo.....which the doc told her she'd experience for the rest of her life.....
