We need to address the root causes of illnesses, not just the symptoms. And we need preventative healthcare.
But the industries that profit off our sickness - and we really are very, very sick - will continue to prevent this.
The current economic system of neoliberal capitalism, with its transfer of power to an elite few, and its need for perpetual profit and growth, exploits us, divides us, poisons us.
It makes us sick. And it keeps us sick. Economic success comes before our wellbeing.
See Cuba for what can be achieved in a non-capitalist system.
