This is in fact a national crisis, as urgent as any that we face.

We just can’t allow this to happen to us.

The nation cannot possibly afford to take care of 100 million people with these awful diseases, none of us wants to be there or see people we care about living with stroke, dementia, heart disease, blindness, immobility . . .

But what do you think are the chances of the kind of major national mobilization that would be required to save our lard butts?
