You mean back when most people were dead before they hit 60,


women regularly died in childbirth, and people who got something like cancer just died without treatment? When "healthcare" in many places consisted of a shot of whiskey and a saw? Sure.

Things are a little different now, I'd say.

Definitely the first time I've heard someone argue that FDR somehow ruined a once-great healthcare system. Last I checked, before the New Deal there was no healthcare system and half the country was literally third world.
