In Bath, another warship has been launched. Price tag: $4 billion. The shipyard and its business is said to be critical to the health of the economy.

Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) says that $4 billion could secure clean drinking water for the entire world while also eliminating hunger for a number of years.

In our increasingly divisive public mind, there are some who promote “the economy” as it’s explained to us and those that see health in an entirely different way.

Is it so difficult to see?
