Every year 500,000 Americans go bankrupt because of medical bills; 85 million are uninsured or underinsured; & 68,000 die because they can't afford the healthcare they need. Meanwhile the CEO's of the 10 largest health insurance companies make tens of millions of dollars a year.

I'm still laughing about that Canadian story about a veteran who was offered assisted suicide because they wanted one of those electric chairs installed to get upstairs! 😂

You must have gotten swamped,smeared with the Medicare Advantage marketing. The US fed,state, and many cities have been privatized.

I think most governments/societies/people figured hmm we don't think justice and the military should have a profit incentive, ah maybe health insurance falls into this category too

"Nobody — and I mean NOBODY — in this country is calling up Congress begging to continue to pay the highest prices on the planet for their prescription drugs.What you do have is an overwhelming majority of Americans asking us to finally take on Big Pharma's greed. Let's do it."

This country should rise up and demand better health care. I’ve been surviving breast cancer for 14 years. It’s completely miserable and debilitating to deal with doctors and insurance. It’s awful.

Insurance companies aren't the only ones getting rich off of sick people, you need to look at the entire healthcare system, and that includes hospitals and doctors. They can't make a living if you are healthy to begin with, they're incentivized to keep you sick.

@marwilliamson great news! Did you know you can invest your own labor capital and money you make into those evil pharmaceutical companies? And that by owning shares, they will share those ‘10s of millions in profits’ with you via dividends?
