1/ 600,000 people have died of Covid in America, which is deeply tragic. But it should also be noted that the same amount of people die of cancer in America every year.

2/ Yet cancer statistics don’t get a fraction of the attention Covid statistics have gotten, and for a reason. Food & chemical companies, Big Ag and all environmental polluters should be held accountable for the massive amounts of carcinogens in our food, air, water & pesticides.

3/ Both government and mass media are under the undue influence of massive industries that literally poison our air, food and water on a consistent basis.

4/ We should be talking about more than just healthcare; we should be talking about why there’s so much chronic illness in the USA compared to other countries. Until we get the money out of politics & break up corporate monopolies that control the media, none of this will change

We can focus our energies on not getting cancer. We need to stop smoking tobacco. We need to be careful what we eat. We must be mindful of our environments and the air we breathe and the water we drink. Each of us has the power to change the numbers. #FuckCancer

Really? Careful what we eat? "Mindful of our environments?" How do you as an individual purify the air as you walk down the street, or rid the drinking water of carcinogens? The way we change all this is by voting, not just taking individual actions to protect ourselves.

Your math is seriously wrong! 600k dead (under reported) divided by 328m is 2%. Not including chronic illness. Go rub a crystal and do your arithmetic.

All of these statistics demonstrate one common concern. Too many people are void of feeling anything, yet eager to claim the next dollar theirs. Even, many experience, in their own families. Teach people to feel, care, and love. Teach compassion and kindness and courage.
