Exactly, Carol. It's not for nuthin' that a huge proportion of American youth cannot qualify for military service, and that's not new, though I think it's been a growing proportion.

It’s been growing since pHarma was given free rein by Congress in 1986. How many Boomers remember a lot of classmates being unable to eat bread or fruit? How many Boomers remember the majority of classmates being diagnosed with ADD/ADHD/ODD/PANS/PANDAS/asthma/diabetes etc.? It’s been a “long game”. A population can’t fight when the majority of the population is damaged/injured.

I’m not even a Boomer and I can’t remember those things! No children in my school had those issues!

There was a boy in high school who had cancer (maybe leukemia but I can’t remember) but that was the only case I can think of. He survived.
