Advances in medical technology mean people are living longer. What are some of the downsides of this? How old do you hope to live? I think we’ve gotten away from real food & how to live. We rely on doctors, medicines more than on our own minds & bodies. My thing is, Why with all the modern technology are we sicker than ever? With that said though, I do appreciate the advancements we have made but feel we should have a balance.
 
The price of insurance going higher the older you get it isn't worth it.
Link between health spending and life expectancy: The US is an outlier
The fact is that probably every doctor in the US with indoctrination is getting so much and with no risk of being fought in court over price gouging is so despicable and if you don't pay what they want that is inhumanely treating you by the off chance they didn't allow you to be independent from them. If you want a prescription you need a check up. That costs money. They are guaranteed to make money because of the requirements they set to keep you in their system. Not all doctors are the same and some are competent but that doesn't mean others will do their best to make sure you never come back again.

Kind of answered your own question, people living longer is not the best of things.

A lot of people now get ill as a result of medical advancement. We all want to be finer, stronger and fitter without eating less processed food. That is the challenge.
