The Body Economic Part III

I wish everyone could read this section, along with the rest of the book, to be honest.  The contrast between what social conservatives consider to be correct ideology and what studies have actually found to be right is striking.  How can millions–perhaps billions–of people operate under the assumption that cutting health spending saves money when it has been shown time and time again to not be an effective strategy?  Governments seriously need to think in the long term and pass laws and budget reforms that will benefit their nation at its core, and at its core is the health of the people.
