Modern "medicine" is nothing more than a legal means to sell poison and create addicts to them. Socialized medicine is the means to take money from everyone to pay to the purveyors, read pushers... They keep getting richer as we live longer and less healthily. I have had my life saved once by medicine about 17 years ago and I have seen a doctor twice and "nurse practitioner" thrice since then. Only once of those did I see any benefit to my health. If I can't treat it myself with some common sense I will resort to looking for help in the internet. Only when I cannot find a solution myself will I deign to visit someone else for help. The two people I learned most of my home remedies from have long since passed and I miss them everyday still. I am a proud self medicating OLD man. The cure should never be worse than the malady.

In some ways I respect the illegal drug seller more than the legal ones, at least the former does not pretend to care about you, your family or health. The latter is made up largely of pretentious sadists with a god complex and bloated ego.
