Herbal medicine may be a good alternative

The health care system certainly needs changing, but not socializing. The insurance companies need to cover herbal medicine and alternative medicine. If the doctors weren't in bed with the pharmaceuticals, there wouldn't be a problem. Doctors give out drugs like candy and then they wonder why more and more people are addicted to them. They have side effects written in the paperwork that goes with the drugs.

If people want to be a Guinea pigs, then they can go ahead. But, they shouldn't sue the drug companies when they get affected by the side effects, especially when they know the risks.

I have been studying herbal medicine for 20 years. It's fascinating. I cured my daughter's ruptured ear drum on my own with ingredients from my local herb store. Before we put things into our bodies, let's think about it and decide if we want to put up with the side effects.
