Kind of? Are you going to tell us that the US healthcare system is "sorta silly" next?

Sorta silly?! It's fucked beyond belief. Source: me, someone who profits off the healthcare industry as a corpo. Sorry ๐Ÿคท.

god if i had the arcane knowledge of the entire field of healthcare, i would do some unbelievably fucked up shit.

And by that i mean writing open documentation that is continually maintained and represents most healthcare providers in the US specifically to fuck up their entire existence.

Doo iiiiit! (If you can).

Honestly I do the best I can to fudge numbers and drive down prices, but I can only do so much. They're eventually going to catch on and replace me with someone who doesn't give a fuck.

lol, perhaps one of these days i will have enough expendable income and time to dedicate to this kind of shit.

It'd make for a rather fun experience.

i mean, it is sorta silly. Not full sillyness, full sillyness would be forcing people in immediate life threatening injury to recite the ABC's backwards before operation as protocol.

[โ€“] DudeImMacGyver 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Sure, there's degrees of silly

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

i spose there would be, but at the end of the day. Silly is a rather silly word to be using in this manner.

From a certain point of view? Yes.
