    These stories never show the positive side. Sure the hospitals can’t take care of the patients as well as before and that is an unfortunate reality that just can’t be avoided. However now the hospitals can take better care of the shareholders (slave holders)!

      And isn’t that what it’s really all about in the end? What are hospitals if not profit generators for the owner class? Those private equity heroes took an oath to “do no harm” to their shareholders’ financial quarter.

    This is just the rich looting hospitals to enrich themselves.

    In the UK the rich looted hospitals to such measurably bad health outcomes that the average height dropped by 1cm (1/2 inch) during the tories’ 14 year tenure.

          Comment section is prolly closest we got but even that is likely over half bots, feds and shills

          Fediverwe is a lot better than most social media for now…

            But not by any virtue other than being too small to matter. Reddit started pretty good, too.

              You ain’t wrong…

              But I think we also can foster culture of critical thinking and punish bad faith behavior… Although that shot can pretty easily be over ran by bots if reddit is any indicator lol

              I don’t think instancr owners have the same incentives to enable tho

              Time will tell
