But do you
have the "facts?" Do you know if the diabetes rate per 100,000 people is not increasing, especially among children? In the 1960s a war against cancer was launched. Has the cancer rate declined? Could the heart attack rate be increasing per 100.000 people but many live longer because of a medical system so expensive that many Lower-income working people cannot afford it?
What
is a "healthy" person? Is it someone propped up by drugs for multiple conditions so that he or she is able to live longer than past generations?
