s procjenom ukupnih životnih troškova ljudskog bića, posebno u svjetlu
sloma mnogih mirovinskih i zdravstvenih sustava. Troškovi ljudskog bića
mogu biti visoki i prije rođenja (dugotrajno ležanje u svrhu očuvanja ploda,
umjetna oplodnja). Dijete treba pripremiti za profesionalni život. Sve
su zahtjevniji poslovi za koje treba osposobiti novi naraštaj, pa i ti troškovi
trajno rastu. Istodobno u praksi, zapošljavanjem samo mladih, realni
radni vijek pojedinca sve je kraći. Zbog navedenog razvoja, ljudi žive sve
dulje. Stoga se razdoblje po završetku profesionalne karijere produljuje. U
tom razdoblju osobito rastu troškovi liječenja. Postavlja se temeljno pitanje:
kako u relativno kratkom roku aktivnog djelovanja zaraditi za životni
vijek trostrukog trajanja. Očito je da generacijska solidarnost više neće
moći podnijeti sve više troškove kvalitetnog, a sve duljeg života. Nameće
se zaključak: bogati, moćni i nasilni odredili su ciljeve istraživanja za
potrebe produljenja njihovih života, a na račun siromašnijih, nemoćnijih
i slabijih.
METAMEDICAL REVIEW OF THE VALIDITY OF AIMS
IN MODERN MEDICINE
Metamedicine is a comprehensive science of entanglement of medicine,
economy and society. Researches in the field of natural and other sciences
in the service of medical sciences, and their translation into highly profitable
medical and pharmaceutical products, have become have become the
most important area of activity of scientists in research and development
worldwide. Enormous sums of money are invested in these researches.
Successful conversion of research into market products, due to the very
expensive and not always appropriate procedures, is usually reserved for
the richest and the most powerful. The most probable answer to the question
why this research is a priority is – the extension of life expectancy. In
the review of social criteria of metamedicine, a question is raised of who
has set this aim and with what purpose, because it is associated with the
estimate of total living expense of a human being, especially in light of
the collapse of many pension and health care systems. The expenses can
be high even before birth (longterm rest in order to preserve the unborn,
artificial insemination). A child needs to be prepared for professional life.
The jobs for which the new generation has to be trained are increasingly
demanding, thus causing the constant growth of the expenses. At the same
