Yeah.

Great one.

So we've got some wins in public health.

Why do you think public health has been unsuccessful in this arena?

And it can't be for a lack of trying.

Do you have any radical ideas that if you ignore the challenges or issues around implementation, you would want to implement?

But of those three things, isn't education and financial well-being higher today than it was 50 years ago?

The third one, parental support is probably less today.

There are probably more broken families today, but two of those three are better today than 50 years ago, aren't they?

But how does that explain what you see in the Middle East, for example, where you have countries that are remarkably wealthy, there is no poverty.

Obviously, there is disparity in wealth between the very affluent, which is effectively everybody, and then the ultra-affluent.

Families aren't broken, everybody is educated, and yet obesity and diabetes rates are greater than even in the US.

Yeah.

I'm talking about Gulf nations, obviously not.

I'm too hungry having this discussion.

So David, thank you for making the trip down.

As always, it's a pleasure.

Truly my pleasure, Peter.

Let's keep doing it.

Thank you for listening to this week's episode of The Drive.
