Control Group

I want somebody to pay me a million bucks to state the obvious. I can prove that black is darker than white, for example. Or that cars can go faster than turtles. Or that a "Healthy diet tied [is] to longer life in 70s" ... oh, wait, somebody did that already.


Most of us know that Canadians are choosing alternative-health treatment options both to treat illness and to maintain health. Few of these options are covered by our health care system. And despite evidence that more and more Canadians are paying out-of-pocket for health, by-passing free monopoly health, there has been little policy discussion about alternative health within the political parties of Canada.

I have written before about establishing a voluntary, healthy health-control group. Such a control group could be used to prove medico efficacy (or its fecklessness).
I have written before of idiot studies like the healthy-diet one above. I call these studies Duh-factor studies.

Canadians have a right to health information, a right to access health care, and a right to practice health care of their choice. None of this currently exists.

The solution is to break the medico monoploy and fund consumer-driven health care, instead.
