    Modern medicine, no matter how smart and clever we think we are, still mostly involves doing things that just keep the patient amused while letting nature take it’s course.

      Ah yes, titanium joints and donor organs just magically grow in people that need them, the surgeons just play jazz while you’re asleep

      I can only 15% agree, this is true for certain things like cancer where we have found ways to mitigate the risk of death but haven’t cured it, as well as certain other chronic illnesses. But for plenty of things you would go to a doctor for, they have a solution.

      Nah. Give RFK a few years to really implement “let nature take its course” and you’ll change your tune (assuming you don’t get a brain worm).
