None of these people look like they're normal or have a healthy mental state. Could be bias, sure, but something seriously seems off about all of them to me.
I switched to a cheaper insurance plan this year. Not gonna bore with the details but I think I was doing the math wrong previous years and looking at the price of brand prescriptions instead of generic and it messed up my spreadsheets. Anyways, in the past copays have been pretty cheap for urgent care. I had testicle pain recently and went because I was worried it was torsion and there's only so many times I can read "if you don't get it fixed with 12 hours there's 50% chance to lose it" or whatever lol. It ended up being a UTI I think. But they had me come in for a follow-up. The follow-up was the same price as the initial visit just for them to basically say "yeah, you're fine if nothing else happened". That cost me ~$150. It's just infuriating. Like, I sort of get it, but it would've been so much better if they just told me only to come back if symptoms don't improve or ultrasound results showed something fishy.
I get the feeling Tim Wentworth is not in it for the money. He just enjoys seeing people die.
holy shit yeah i can see it

Maybe a deck of cards is in order. Populated with the top excecs in US healthcare
It did not go well for them. AFAICT they were completely de-platformed everywhere, and the card processor for their online shop cancelled their account.
Wow. It would be terrible if someone were to buy a bunch of decks of those cards and drop them around heavily populated areas where there are likely to be people displaced from their homes indirectly through corporate greed.
