Democratizing Health Care

I've heard it said, and seen it done, "This currency of capitalism is the very venomous root of all evil." And, I've heard good cooperative capitalists say, perhaps a bit too loudly, "Not money, this root, merely innocent paper and metal-based resource, but human natural win/lose evolutionary greed," Selfish inhumane spirits indeed are Earth's rapacious demon seed. This reminds me, I've also heard it said, and felt depressing loss, that "Automated guns are the root toxic cause of massive murder." I've also heard deer and quail unautomated hunters, perhaps a tit for tat too defensively military unmindful, "Not guns at moral fault," although not quite so innocent ballistic metal-based, or even plastic-paste resource not the least bit recyclable, "but human unnatural win/lose mental devolutionary madness." Shadowy spirits indeed, such dark seed. Seldom have I heard it said, or felt lose/lose despairingly unresolved debate, the better identified malignant root of win/lose violent communications and malignant divestments of anthropocentric inhumane nature, is the unfortunate sociopathic RELATIONSHIP between automated guns and Might Makes Right win/lose devolutionary natures, darkly co-relational, co-arising bipolar pathology issues indeed rotten detaching attachment seeds Perhaps it would be helpful if I could hear what I have most often seen transparently and vulnerably lose/lose economic-political capital extracting colonizing enslaving racist sexist failure to notice co-arising internal/external tool and currency invested relationships, These most persistently unhealthy dual roots of anti-ecological, competitive, win/lose economic failure also the unfortunate politically sociopathic relationship between capitalism's commodifying monopoly on FirstWorld accepted as entitled true value, reasonable culturally tolerated historic might makes right competitive left-brain dominant greed, envy detachment fragmentation of left/right harmonic co-relational identity, cognitive/affective dissonance chronic, becoming acute, critical ego/Earth climate dysfunctional lack of relationship risks of long-term industrial revolutionary opportunities Where MotherEarth transparently and vulnerably, courageously and curiously, rightfully and co-responsibly nurtures Either/Or polypaths and Both/And polyphonic polynomials producing/consuming polyculturally health-rooted outcomes, nutritional win/win yields more health/wealth cooperative in bilaterally conscious minds, humane hearts, secular/sacred ungreedy co-passioning souls.
