@MikeDunnAuthor @mempko There is a very simple reason why US healthcare is shit: a disturbingly large number of people in the US are eugenicists who believe the “weak” should die for the benefit of the species, or theofascists who believe that medical conditions are divine punishment, so treating them goes against God’s will.

For them, diabetics dying because they can’t afford insulin is a net positive. The system is working exactly as intended.
