Body hygiene as a national policy in contrast to the medical industry run by corporations? The ethics of health.

submitted by HibikiBlackCaudillo from self.conspiracy

I think a good method to promote health in a decent nation is to make body hygiene a part of the policies run by the state. I think a lot of the corruption happening today related to the medical industry and how it takes advantage of people's weakness depend on exploiting people's ignorance when it comes to basic facts related to their bodily functions.

It's also a good way to promote eugenics as well. The more healthy and competent people become on a daily basis the better the genes they will pass on to the next generation.

I don't think that's how genes work.

I believe evolution to be more "Lamarckian" than "Darwinian", so I do think it matters how people develop their skills in life and keep themselves at challenge.

I've never heard of Lamarckism before. I'll check it out, thanks.
