Ideology is causing this, specifically the idea that medical services must be profitable, and the idea that if you don't work, you don't get to eat.
That we even accept this premise is utterly absurd.
- JackFr 7y agoThat’s ludicrous. And no one is saying that. The argument is how much is too much? Is there any limit to what the governors can ask? Cause it feels like they’re governing by diktat, with little transparency or accountability. People are ok with it, because there is enough trust in our institutions to carry us through public health crisis. But it will wear thin. Politicians and the chattering classes are far removed from the damage they are doing and far to self congratulatory.
