America’s medical debt is $88B, while the top five pharmaceutical companies brought in $80B in profit last year alone. The institutionalized greed of insurance and pharmaceutical companies is an economic plague on this country. We need single-payer universal healthcare, and nothing less. #MedicareForAll

America's medical debt is $88 billion. Federal government can and should forgive it, and insure it never happens again by passing #MedicareForAll - They refuse.

Who would run this system? The same Nazis mandating dangerous vaccines and school lockdowns?

For-profit healthcare incentivizes ongoing treatments instead of cures. It is our common enemy. Abolish it. #LongCovid #POTS #MECFS

What if we make sure everyone has healthcare as a human right, take the profit motive out of it, and heavily fund biomedical research focused on curative treatments for conditions that don’t yet have cures?

There are over 1000 health insurance companies in the US. Only 11 are allowed to practice in California. Does government regulation have anything to do with prices?

Vaccine mandates will help pharma. Keep up the good work.
