Did you know?

Dr. Benjamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, wanted a "Medical Freedom" amendment in the Bill of Rights. He warned, "Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution ... medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship."

Creating a decentrilized medical system would be challenging but doable. What if patients had private keys that accessed their medical information and placed power in their hands. Interesting to think about

What if it was just on paper like it used to be. 😂

And only with your doctor.

That could work 😂

This is the Way

Agreed!

What if you just ate proper food and didn't need a doctor

I support that! But injuries and illness happen

I think modern doctors are pretty decent for trauma care

But for chronic care or even acute illness I think you're better off without

Very true but my point was that the information would be placed in the patients hands instead of medical offices.

Thomas Jefferson was like “nah” 😔

And he was right.

Then we'd need a Bill of Rights for every single service provided by the government

On matters concerning the constitution I usually refer to Lysander Spooner.

🤯…I was today years old when I learned this…thnx for a great post🌅

medicine was already corrupt in his day and was more concerned with protecting its own image than with helping patients.

today it is similar to the military industrial complex.

Apparently, he was right.
