Dr Jordan Peterson - "Medicine kills more people than it saves"...... and this is man that many people consider a leading intellectual?

He's we'll spoken and delivers his material with extreme confidence but crap like this reveals that he is truly ignorant and quite happy to use his un-earned status to peddle something he pulled right out of his ass.

"Now that's just a guess and it could easily be wrong....but it also could NOT be wrong!"
LMAO just brilliant, Jordan. So insightful.
And then he goes on to say that medical error is the 3rd leading cause of death.

I still take medicine when I need it because I think even though some facts are true about hospitals and doctors, I think I can weight the benefits and risks of such things when they come up.

Still, I think Peterson has a point. I'm not sure what is so crazy about saying that medications kill. Doctors do human error all the time and our health care is pretty broken. You know how many people die of preventable causes?
