All great points, but #20 brings up some ominous thoughts. The industrial healthcare system has been unsustainable for a long time. Systemic issues have never been addressed, and now the whole thing is collapsing on itself. There was purposely no efforts made to impose cost controls in order to maximise profits, but now those costs have hit the limits. There is also the demographics crush of retiring medical personnel, happening at the same time you have the Baby Boomers beginning to “age out of the system”.

They are in no rush to address this looming tide wave, but at this point it’s actually too late to even do anything about it. The powers that be(political/medical/Pharma/Insurance) killed their golden goose.
