A new mom died after giving birth at a Boston hospital. Was corporate greed to blame?
Spoiler: corporate greed was to blame. Private capitalist healthcare is a bad idea in theory -and in reality.
Edit: fun fact: the private equity firm that owns the hospital in this story is called Cerberus Capitol Management - named after the three headed hound that guards the gates of hell.
Interesting take! I'd be curious to hear any thoughts on the Friedman doctrine as it relates to healthcare, and in broader terms of social services or just in general.
Well now just hold on a gosh darned minute there Mr. Flippy Mcflopper, "A plumber should not be paying for your gender studies degree" and yet you want me to pay for treatment of people who gave themselves diabetes by eating too much heavily subsidized sugar?
Anyway if you are slowly coming around to democratic socialism thinking that's great and I won't tell anyone, but you should realize education is as important as healthcare to a functioning society.
I agree with you, comrade.
Well I happen to believe that anything Germany can do, America can do better. We put man on the moon, did Germany do that? Why, I bet with a little American ingenuity and determination, we could get up to 60% of Americans to have degrees in gender studies.
