Idk the longer we live the more we will spend. I don’t think it’s a conspiracy, I just think it’s a byproduct of capitalism/greed. I’ve never had a doctor urge me to stay on a medication beyond it’s necessary treatment, and I have some significant medical issues. My doctors suggest things like acupuncture, physical therapy, meditation and mindfulness practices, and are hesitant to prescribe meds.

Not true, as we get to senior status, the government and businesses start having to pay for us to live. Not to mention we end up not being in shape to work and retire so theres really no use for people in a business sense once you hit retirement age, cant even have kids in most cases and the risk for mental diseases/illness drastically go up the older you get so that alone creates even more problems for bigwigs to have to pay more for assisted living
