Health is Wealth.

It is one of the oldest aphorisms in English. The second one is Heal Thyself. If you take “heal” and “thy” you get healthy. If you take “thy” and ‘me’ you get an edible plant sometimes used as garnish.

The great fraud that has been fostered upon the people is not the economics of scarcity although that probably takes second place, it’s that wealth is the same as money. And I don’t mean wealth as in the way a landlord is considered wealthy (a landlord might have 10 properties paid for but no liquidity for example is still wealthy) with properties that earn money every month without work, I mean wealth as in a sense of being able to enjoy what life has to offer.

A life essence that has a healthy mind and body is wealthy. The System is propagated by people whose riches are transmitted from one generation to another. The same people who were nobility and more in the Middle Ages are now considered old money. Their bloodlines are often the new money. Work in childhood and relax for the rest of their lives is sort of the foundationary principle of the System. The average person has the opposite. They have childhoods often in poverty yet intact, but lives of nonstop labor or that of a hamster on a wheel. The average person nowadays is visibly unhealthy while the rich are often visibly slim or fit.

The key to wealth and health lies in agriculture. Or more specifically in plants. Plants are incredibly generous creators. Not only do they provide us with oxygen for our daily breath but they also produce seeds in such abundance that most of them can be consumed while a few replanted as gratitude. No other life form is that generous. Yet agriculture created culture that created cults of agriculture and then just cults of suffering children. Take the flag of almost any state and you will see an agricultural deity on it.

Three Ploughs on a Shield? Check
Phrygian Cap? Check
A Scarlett Knight’s Helmet? Check
Ceres the Goddess of Agriculture? Check
The other lady is Liberty.
Why is the Horse’s head cut off? That’s the cult part of culture and agriculture.
That yellow though, that’s an amazing shade: very rich looking. Golden but not quite there.
The Buff Field: The unique background color traces back to 1779 when George Washington ordered the New Jersey Continental Line to wear uniforms of dark "Jersey blue" with buff facings. Buff was historically reserved for the uniforms of generals and Washington himself, and it also subtly honored the region's original Dutch settlers.

C’est la bleu profond General. Pretty sure Washington never said that to Lafayette.

Anyway, here’s a video of how America ought to move from sick care to health care.
