Hey guys - I work tracking the shitshow that is the American healthcare system... I see PA forms and reimbursement qualifications... I know what step edits are and the have seen some of the absurd coverage denials...

We don't fucking want privatization. Please fucking believe me... yes, the system we have isn't working, but that system is so much fucking worse.

But how else will the Weston family break into the health market?

WON'T YOU THINK OF THE BILLIONAIRES!!

I think of them frequently. They have my thoughts and prayers.

Not my help, of course. They should have to work for their success just as hard as the rest of us. But I hope that they'll be able to carve out a living with their labour!

If you struggle with reading etween the linesThe implication is that they should be stripped of their capital and the power it gives them. I hope they'll turn out decent, hard-working people (because good people are worth more than vindication), but even if they aren't, them being able to live on little work implies a world where we don't have to worry about slaving away for survival. That's worth hoping for.
