 In the above article it breaks down how many people in England are on the  cholesterol-lowering drugs protect people who are not already at a high risk of heart...  i don't think that is what made England the great Country she once was, is striving for free pills to ward off Hypothetical future ailments .   Can you imagine the British who once claimed  that the sun never set on their empire to have come to this SORRY state ?    Can you tell me how many settlers or mountain men set off to tame the wild country here in the USA  who would have fretted out this silliness !!!   Can you imagine any great peoples from around the Earth who would have gone out and become great this way????? All great tribes of the earth have been made from steel character not from this soft fabric!!!
