Follow-up question, you all have been helpful--appreciate that, but I do question the "West's" commitment to 'good health' with little to no actual personal sacrifice, isn't the opioid crisis in line with that?
When we(society) have overweight people come in to the clinics and the Dr.s offices, they are told, "mr or mrs double-chin, you need to go on a severe calorie deficit diet! You will be dead in 5 years if you continue the current SAD diet of twinkies, chicken nuggets, and krispy kreme!" but they fire that Dr. and go to one that yelp gives more reviews for the happy feelies.
So Dr.s like any other purveyors have learned to adapt or go extinct.
It's not to say they haven't also adapted to the blow, the speed, the Maserati and the 2 or 3 17-20 year old groupies they've got side hustle with in addition to the trophy wife, but we're a lazy society of snow flakes.
If we were told the truth, you will always have this pain until the day you die. You can continue to just barely cope or you can become a junkie, burn bright, then die. Most would chose the later anyway.

It's not to say the enablers don't also need punished, but as a disposable society that craves the quick fixes, are we not our own devil?
