Amen to you Birds Eye View! I am totally on the same chapter and page as you are! I am in my early 70’s. Never had ‘health insurance’ as an adult, until I turned 65 and got the worthless Medicare and its attendant ‘supplemental plan’, that I have to pay for out of my SS benefit! And never use.

I use ‘alternative/holistic’ healthcare providers, like naturopaths, chiropractors and acupuncturists, and ‘healers’! 💓🙏🏻
Ah so lovely to hear that! And yes, same for me - I haven’t had health insurance in a gazillion years. They didn’t cover the homeopathics and supplements that were our medicines, or organic food, chiro, massage, gym membership and reiki that were my preventative healthcare. I birthed at a midwifery school and home, etc. I knew I was unusual among our mainstream social group but I didn’t realize just exactly how unbelievably significant it all was until later when I saw how far people were willing to go to comply.
Yes you were an anomaly, to have your babies at a midwifery school and at home. Todays ‘modern mothers’ are too keyed into The System as far as there ‘birthing’ needs go, (and I think they are scared s**tless at the thought of a home birth!) Nor are the husbands and fathers into it!
And we both are ‘anomolies’ in these times, to have not participated in The Industrial Medical Healthcare Delivery System for our ‘healthcare needs’ for most of our adult lives!
I agree that preventive medicine in the western world is anything but preventive. What would you do for trauma? Western medicine is at its best dealing with trauma . What would you do for any of those types of medical expenses? For example the unforseen automobile accident that requires a ride in an ambulance and an emergency surgery to stop internal bleeding.
Hi Tom. Auto accidents are covered by their own insurance. Interesting that you find western med appropriate for trauma… I haven’t. Maybe you’re referring to physical trauma and if so, yes, in such an extremely rare situation, I would pay someone to stitch me up. I’ve saved tens of thousands of dollars (hundreds of thousands?) not paying for useless exams and insurance. For what is typically called trauma or PTSD, the many modalities in The Body Keeps the Score are most effective. (And it’s extremely clear that talk therapy and drugs DO NOT heal trauma and drugs cause horrific harms propagandized as “side” effects when in fact there’s nothing “side” about them.) Trauma is a nervous system issue and you can see many clips of Peter Levine showing how to heal it.
