    Sorry someone hurt you, but this is just a very skewed view. Medicine is one of only a few fields requiring high degrees of training and investment that isn’t keeping up with inflammation year after year. If you just against an upper middle class in general that’s a bigger issue that you aren’t going to solve anytime soon. If you think people aren’t entering the field for it’s payoff, don’t take my word for it look at all the alternatives with better pay and less debt. Sure there are some bad seeds out there, but they are also fools and a minority. I hope you find better healthcare in the future, and I’m all for healthcare reform and you guessed wrong (for Christs sake, I’m on Lemmy - why are you betting against obvious statistics).

      Save your bullshit.

      Someone didn’t hurt ME. Someone prioritized profits over saving 70,000 lives a year in the United States alone.

      We estimated that on an annual basis, universal coverage would save the lives of 68,531 Americans.

      Someone (literally anyone who financially benefits from private healthcare) hurt every single person in the United States by killing roughly 68,531 of their countrymen needlessly.

      I shouldn’t say it’s all bad: Healthcare is what ripped the mask off of our society once and for all, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that a society built on the fiction of free market capitalism is one that at its foundation, relies on the death and suffering of millions to sustain itself.
