Is it a surprise to anyone that I have a deep hatred of capitalism much less predatory capitalism and special exemptions for the very wealthy to not pay any taxes. of course we're such a violent Nation we are filled with rage as the many not the few were the one.

I cannot express how grateful I am that people formed a GoFundMe when I was very sick and required specialty drugs to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars even with insurance. Specialty Care outside the VA for my husband is also mine Arizona is a community property state.

Like the world be a better place if people had better care and we cared about humanity individually. Where is the accountability much less a standard of care every doctor will treat the way they wish to not by a standard other than to check a box because that's how they get paid.

Us healthcare profits off of the pain and suffering of human beings and extends lives often knowing fully well what they're doing is either useless unproven or harmful, sometimes deadly. I would not be in bone marrow failure had someone done more than just glance at a simple CBC

Once at the NHS in the UK I spent 3 hours waiting for a doctor which didn't bother me at all since here you can spend 12 to 14 hours doctor may never show. I've had this happen and left. so documents read left against medical advice when no medical advice was ever given SMH

The only exception with the time Factor which in conventional general us medicine is the specialist such as an oncologist or hematologist to spend more time typically you're scheduled for 20 minutes and they spend five or less and still right that they spent 20 which is fraud.

My deepest respect for the palliative and hospice home Care movements and the people who are going into its practice you are doing something very different and very special and I am so grateful for. They spend more money in education in time and get paid less. Now that is care!

When I was growing up they were still this concept of doctors coming to your house now they bring Labs x-rays ultrasounds any form of help they can logistically do and is covered by insurance. 45 minutes of her unscheduled time is more time I spent in a year with a doctor.

I get a pain management specialist who will work to keep paying with minimalistic amounts of medicine which is what I prefer. It will not invade my home require me to ever enter a hospital never demand I go to an ER, they bring only the care I want, from labs to themselves.

The palliative and hospice movements in the USA are the way medicine should and could be but you have to be very sick and there's only 5% of that care with 100% need. human-centered medicine. She spent 45 minutes asking me what I wanted and needed not demanding or threatening me.

As I've said before brave browser is in fact very brave. This is exactly the sort of action we need to take control back of n web that is not excluding everything the web is meant to be, but becoming all app based, exploitable, unusable, uninteroperable bleepingcomputer.com/news/se…

Most of my pain is from medicine not from anything I did to myself which should have caused I wish it caused my problems because then I can blame something I can hate myself for hurting myself but there is nothing I ever did myself has hurt me more then the US Healthcare System.
