I can't argue with that. the part of me that's pursuing a career in the public health sector believes that everyone should have a chance to live their lives without having to worry about some super-bug killing them and their family. however, the logic in my brain states that we are the sum of every decision that we, as individuals, make. life IS a bitch. sometimes the dice come up snake-eyes.
but fucking up is nothing more than human nature. no matter how much more we evolve, there will be certain members of society who never amount to anything, make life-altering decisions, and die early deaths because of them. we'll never totally weed out these 'risk-takers' (although I almost don't call them that--it's too sterile), and I'm sure there will be two people having this same discussion in 100 years and/or 1000 years if we haven't killed ourselves off by then.
