As somebody with my own grievances against the medical system, it’s not just that it’s in my interest to dust my hands off and walk away, it’s that the medical system is a 9 headed gigantic hydra that I feel impotent to do anything about it without dedicating a huge swathe of my life to being a reformer and even then I’ll likely be shouting into the wind.
The amount of parties which can have some interest in keeping a broken part of the medical system broken is staggering, it can extend from researchers to doctors to insurers to the government to institutions to businesses to the patients themselves and their families AT THE SAME TIME just because of the sheer amount of money that gets thrown around even if the actual medicine is nonsense. Reforms risk fucking with the money and you DO NOT fuck with the money!
