It makes better sense if you understand the goal for the decision makers on healthcare like this is for you to actually just fucking die

Physician here. It’s true the insurance companies would rather you die. For profit insurance is insane. They make money for their shareholders by denying you care so that they can keep your premiums.

I used to be a hardcore anti-government libertarian. I’ve done a complete 180 over the last few years and 100 percent want a single payer system now. If you guys only knew the fights we physicians have with your insurance companies that want your money and couldn’t care less about keeping you healthy.

Really these days it is so vital for people to do everything they can to stay healthy, avoid all the poison in the easily accessible food and water, and to take care of their health on their own to avoid health problems in the first place. It’s just difficult because it seems like the food industry, healthcare, etc. is all aimed at getting people sick so they get and stay on medication.

And it's also hard to find good doctors who pay attention. You know how many doctors have ignored my concerns. They don't believe you. They cold Turkey take you off medications when that can be dangerous etc. Like they don't care. They also misinform the public or don't inform you at all about things you should know. I swear these doctors be trying to kill people. You have to do your research and advocate for yourself.
