Lmao. This hasn't been true about human populations since at least the Neolithic, and looking at human social structures, it likely wasn't true ever.

Shhh...don't burst Roger's ideal libertarian world bubble

You’re not worried about them because you’re protected by the big gov nanny police state.

No, I can outgun them, and outrun them.

they;re all fat now.

Never saw the movie, slick.

But I have lived here for 30 years and understand the people faaaaaar better than you ever will.

I got it made brother. Sorry you need more nannyism.


It makes you very angry that some dont require it..

Because we kill off the strong in war and save the weak through welfare and regulation.

No, what I mean is that selective pressures on human populations do not work that way. And nutritional limitations have made relative things like 'strength' dependent on the environment. And given the sheer number of very different environments that humans inhabitants, the lesson is that human adaptability is the most important human characteristic. The common theme of human development is that humans have been able to maximize and dominate each environment they inhabit, which is utterly unique in animal terms.

I take you you too require govt guidelines to be healthy

As in personally? No, but there are places where governments should intervene. If an ingredient is proven to be harmful, shouldn't we regulate it?

How do all those healthy people survive without RFK guiding them?

---

This generation of people 45 and above are exquisitely unhealthy. They are surviving, but at the ground level, without some intervention, there is a disaster about to happen. Especially as these people grow older and their pathologies grow. They will expect care and they will get it and then everyone else will share in the burden. Intervention now is better than more intrusive interventions later. That's the reality of my patients, of whom there are a lot.

How do all those healthy people survive without RFK guiding them? Its a miracle!

Roger, I don't want to kick you while you are down and dealing with health issues AKA cancer but I have to point out the irony in you preaching "the strong survive" while being kept alive through pharmaceuticals that were found to control your disease thanks to trial and error, regulations, Gov controlled studies, etc.

In other words, you would already be dead in your idealistic libertarian world where society does not care about one another.

Its quite the conundrum for you.

Prove it. They are not “known” to cause cancer.

I would argue that we do a fantastic job regulating food safety as it is.

You're wanting government to intervene and save those who dont need saving. Its their own choice, let them make it.

---

This is the problem. "we do a fantastic job". No "we" fricking do not! We also talk about how the average age has increased in order for us to delay social security benefits. That's also a BS lie. Our elders lived longer than us and they pulled this bullsht argument about how we live to allow us to buy in on a longer wait for our benefits. Our own "health" entities told us that butter and egg yolks are bad for us, because the big cigars needed to make money. We now see that natural butter, tallow based cooking oil, etc, is way more healthy than what govt. aholes have been pushing on us.

Someone was always going to make or lose money. The problem was that we had a fork in the road for diagnosing our rising heart and metabolic disease issues and we chose the wrong fork. There was a camp back then (1950s maybe?) preaching the dangers of sugar and a camp preaching the dangers of fats. The latter camp won and we're just now figuring it out that they were mostly wrong.
