Last Update:
Have people forgotten who prevented people in the US from getting actual healthcare?
I feel like I don't see it brought up enough - it was the healthcare companies and especially the insurance companies who prevented an actual free healthcare system from being implented. That's why the "ACA"/”Obamacare" system was introduced in the first place. A half-measure that barely improved the situation but ultimately meant a lot more money for insurance companies.
They lobbied against any sort of 'single payer' system and have been lobbying against 'medicare for all'. They're the reason why the US is behind every other developed country (and even some developing nations) when it comes to healthcare.
Guys like Brian Thompson didn't just deny people healthcare in a broken system, he actively prevented that system from getting any better.
Maybe people realised this already but I feel this just isn't brought up enough.
This is the primary issue with CEOs and other members of their class. This is why they cannot be reasoned with. At the end of the day they have a vested economic interest in maintaining an exploitative and murderous economic system.
