5. I've been spouting about this for awhile, with regards to curing diseases
instead of treating the symptoms. Fund epigenetic research to the hilt.

It has major implications for the costs of healthcare in the future and may make all the financial predictions obsolete.

This is where the funding and effort should be focused. What would happen to healthcare costs and growth of the industry if cancers and cardiovascular diseases and diabetes and obesity were prevented and cured?

Might be hope to balance the next generations' budgets and ease their unearned financial obligations.
