Lost my dad and my home. I’m so fucking ready to kill these assholes. Our politicians won’t hold them accountable. Our justice system won’t hold them accountable. They live lives of absolute luxury while we suffer. It’s overdue. I hope these CEOs never sleep another night restfully. I hope this is only the first…
Yeah, I just keep coming back to thinking that I wouldn’t even mind if it was a decision made without a profit motive. It was horribly painful and she wanted desperately to survive as long as she could even if it was a life of chemo and pain. But if it was something like the NHS deciding between people getting a fourth go against glioblastoma or keeping rural emergency rooms open and decided that with their limited funds that’s the better option to save more lives I’d understand. But no, it’s for profit, it’s unaccountable, and it fights constantly against such things and against ever serving the public
Yeah, it’s one thing to ration care at the end of life where the focus is on making a dying person comfortable rather than try to prolong the inevitable as we humans no matter how much we spend trying we can’t live forever nor should we and it’s better to use limited resources to prolong the lives of those who are not near death. But the profit in it is what’s sickening and IMO part of the heart of our decline as a country (capitalism being the main culprit but other countries are capitalist and not nearly as dystopian as us - everything ties back to our fucked healthcare system and liability)
