Universal Neglect; Health Care and Paul Krassner

Quote:Merry Pranksterism is as dead as the 60s.

I hate it when people say the sixties are dead.I like to think of it in terms like hibernation.And,it just awaits some spark to set it off again.What we did in the sixties was lay down a base of countercultural thought,and alternative ways to living better.That base still exists today.

Phil talks about the free health clinic in New Mexico that still exists today.Here,we still have "White Bird" free clinic.

Phil talks about homegrown denistry.Although retired now,we had our own hippie dentist (set up in old 1952 Diamond T school bus.It is featured in the hard to find book "Rolling Homes".It wasn't free,but Doc(learned denistry in the Army,Korea) would charge about half what other dentists charged.And,less if you couldn't pay.

And so much more.....

Hang in there Paul.........
