    A real time peak at what happens many years after selling out the health of your citizens so that insurers can generate money off of misery.

      Been looking at therapists for my teenage daughter, she’s been debating therapy for a couple of years and has recently fully committed.

      We have good insurance and are financially secure, and holy shit it’s still going to cost an extraordinary amount. I don’t understand how anyone struggling with financial insecurity could even consider having access to therapy as an option.

      What a fundamentally broken system, there is not a single type of care that exists that is accessible to the people who need it.

        Think about it this way: the payments you’re making for insurance, that they aren’t reciprocating in terms of service coverage (their only fucking job), is providing a very needy owner with another private island! You’re making the world a happier place as one person can now have multiple islands to lounge on while their corporation does the actual work of syphoning your money for them!

      Just wait for the 23AndMe liquidation sale.

      They’re financially fucked and your genome is going to get sold out to advertisers and life insurance companies.
