re: #267 Gus 802

Anybody home? Fire in the hole! Anywho, woke up feeling like crap, again. I’m still on the waiting list to see a doctor. Might be another 2 months. That reminds me of how the wingers were always hyping up the waiting time for getting treatment in Canada or the UK. God bless Murica! Glad we’re spending our money wisely.

In other new. Phil Collins retires for health reasons while people in England are healthier than those in USA^USAUSAUSA.

And the bassist for Alice in Chains was found dead somewhere in SLC.

I was pondering making a page of that bbc news line about healthier Englanders. Life here is totally different - your population is much more sedentary even by modern standards. Example - i can waolk to my nearest shops and get fresh on the day bread, fresh meats and veg. I stayed in texas suburbs last year and there was no fresh fruit/bread or meat within walking distance, more particularly getting in a car and crossing atleast one freeway.
Also - primarily though - the fixtation on aftercare in the US is a huge problem, in Europe we have altered our resources massively into health continuation/prevention work. Stopping people getting sick is a helluva lot cheaper than treating sick people.
