I'm aware that some people aren't getting health care, or on the other hand are getting sub-standard care at the same price, or are just plain paying too damn much. But my case is, what did they do 500 years ago,or 1000 years ago, or how about the time frame that Krishna or Rama were on the Earth? Was it really much better back then? Does this generation really have it so much worse than any generation in world history that we need to be stressed about it? I think the only true difference between the world now, and in the past, is that we're slowly but surely overpopulating the Earth. The resources needed are no longer going to be available if the birth rate continues to incline at the rate it already is. All i'm getting at is that life, in general, isn't getting any harder than it ever has been since our species has existed. seekliberation
