I have chronic pain, depression, anxiety & food allergies/sensitivity & there are many others like me. Medication, therapy, meditation, yoga help manage symptoms but I think this country & this world has become unhealthy for human beings on so many levels. We must change this.
More Americans are chronically ill than in other advanced democracies. We need more than to provide free healthcare; we need healthier food, water, air & more. We will do more than provide a way to treat sickness; we will provide more ways to prevent sickness & cultivate health.

We talk about trickle-down economics but what about trickle-down violence? When war becomes the status quo, I think it instills a culture of violence, fear, anger & division at home that naturally afflicts us in ways that aren't present in, say, Denmark.

That’s weird cause I go to Europe all the time, in fact I’m in Spain right now, and there are American fast food restaurants everywhere. KFC, Burger King, there’s even a Five Guys right near my hotel. Here is a picture of some of the McDonalds in Madrid. And FYI they are packed.pic.twitter.com/spFkDgRG5E

+ we need to provide HOUSING TO THE HALF MILLION + PEOPLE WITHOUT HOMES BECAUSE HOUSING IS HEALTHCARE. people can’t LIVE when all they have are poverty wages, sleep deprivation, poor nutrition, bans, criminalization, assaults, fear and stress ... HOUSING IS HEALTHCARE

True that! It is cheaper (and more humane) to provide people with housing than it is to provide them with emergency health care or incarceration. Chronic homelessness is stupid unnecessary and expensive.

Personal responsibility is what we take when we support and vote for a candidate that will make choices in the best interest of people and the planet instead of what serves the profit margin of corporations.

And like there's money to be made from sickness, there's also money to be made from health and prevention.

WHEN you have tax-financed universal healthcare, THEN the authorities are going to make prevention a priority.
