I don't know about the others, but I can speak to acid reflux - it doesn't
go away when eating a grain free diet. At least it didn't for me.

Forgot the photos of those who have risen to their level of
incompetence or caring at UPS. I think Al is the janitor just off
to the left of the photos, probably the illegit son of the David Abney CCO
born and bred in Mississippi.

Or maybe they have a better life because religion is fading.

Here the taxes are lower, but they are totally squandered in wars and
contracts without ever solving anything.

There's a 1 mile long fancy mixed path around here (for riding bikes,
walking dogs, etc) that hasn't solved the problem that people must
ride bike on sidewalks to do errands. It is the owners of the dogs
that are happy with it and they are affluent. I've given up on
bureaucracies ever solving the problem in America without shaking the
tree. There's Big Black Hole that swallows everything.

I guess they asked people who didn't worry about being laid off or
about getting sick.

People enjoy long vacations, low crime, and a healthier lifestyle
where they walk or bike.
