RE: Curing Disease is Bad for Business.

Ain't that the truth.

In the states it's that whole private sector vs universal healthcare debate.

In my view the private sector does most things more efficiently, but when it comes to healthcare, the insurance companies have turned it into a nightmare.

If we had universal healthcare in the States would things be better? Probably not, there'd still be no incentive for drug companies to create cures I suppose.

I don't know the answer @pathforger, eat plenty of vegetables and don't do drugs! lol

Thank you, @theroadtoriches, both for your up-vote and your comment. :c)

The private sector 'does' do things more efficiently insofar as minimizing unnecessary costs (and maximizing profits) is concerned.

And that can be a double-edged sword (less waste versus minimalist expenditure on patients).

A better lifestyle would certainly help ("an apple a day..." and all that) but I am of two minds about the drugs... They can be abused - but then again there is no reason why they cannot simply be used.

Thanks again. :c)
