Part III: Sick by Design

Part III: Sick by Design – How Shareholder Health Care Profits from Human Suffering I think most of us want to believe that healthcare exists to make people well. That hospitals are sanctuaries and doctors are healers. That the system, for all its flaws, is fundamentally trying to help. But when I peel back the glossy brochures and the soothing language of “care,” I find something much colder at the centre of it all: a corporate machine engineered not to heal, but to monetise illness.

Part II: Food for Profit

Part II: Food for Profit – How Corporations Engineered Hunger in a World of Plenty In a world of unprecedented agricultural abundance, I am sure that I am not the only one who is struck by the cruel paradox that billions still go hungry, while others are dying from diseases of overconsumption. This situation—scarcity amid plenty, malnutrition amid surplus—is no accident. I believe it is the calculated outcome of a food system built not to feed people, but to feed profits.

The #components needed to give a device the properties of a #computer have become increasingly smaller. M. M. Lassiter et al. (2025) designed the #smallest #microrobot to date, measuring just 200 by 300 μm wide and 50 μm thick. It can #aggregate, #communicate, #sense, and #move via #electricalfields inside #fluids. There are interesting applied options for using such a robot in e.g. medical contexts.
