If there was a US national health care plan, prevention would be the priority rather than forcing people to seek health care only when the situation becomes life-threatening. Having worked in an ER made me a die-hard believer in a national health plan. Any nation that treats its rich and leaves its poor to rot is morally bankrupt, and, surprise, the US is the only industrialised nation to not have a national health care plan.
This "know nothing" advises you to eat whatever you like and as much as you like; just don't come crying when your arteries have hardened and you have raging cases of diabetes, hypertension, and colon cancer. Boy, will we look stupid then!
