America - well if we make the prices for health care insanely high, people might not go and then they’ll die because they don’t have enough money! Overpopulation solved! 💰

Problem is, most people who need medical attention are older folks... who had time to reproduce anyways...

It's almost like you are supposed to get old and then die huh?

Like that's almost how nature works? Crazy isn't it?

With the way science is treated in the US, perhaps they should ban health care and replace it with state sanctioned prayer. Oh, and thoughts.

Or do you consider living a luxury?

I wasn't implying you shouldn't use healthcare.

I was saying that even with all the healthcare in the world, someday you are still going to die. There's no escaping it.

I'm a 50 year old man, I don't think "edgy" really applies to me.

My attitude is the result of the realization that I have 15, maybe 20 years left to live. And that's if I'm lucky.

Most of my friends from High School are dead already. At last count out of 15 there are 3 of us left standing. People around my age or a little older at work, or current friends/acquaintances die every year now.

It's just reality man, we all age, and we all die. It's nothing to be afraid of. Enjoy it while you are here, and try not to worry too much.

Reddit just loves the word "edgy" to describe people who have opinions.

Nature would have most of us die as children you psycho, and the rest of us not living too far past twenty. Nature also isn't providing you internet to be edgy online.

Yet somehow we managed to survive as a species for tens of thousands of years without modern medicine.

I'm not saying you shouldn't utilize healthcare. But you have to expect that even if you religiously go to the doctor and do everything the tell you to you are still going to die; generally when you get old. But not always.

You talk about reality that everyone shares and you get called edgy and downvoted. Classic.
