Medbeds are just a way for conservatives to fantasize about universal healthcare without being called "socialist."

It's a permission structure, an outlet for that unspeakable desire to see a world where the reaction to a person being sick is the very obvious thing: help them, help them get better, do it now.

@futurebird the sad thing is… if someone invented a machine that could solve all illnesses immediately, they would probably want to share that with everyone.

i find it difficult to believe someone would pursue such a project and not make it accessible to anyone who needs it.

@econads @futurebird as stated elsewhere, pharma companies don’t care about cures but instead management

@ariadne @futurebird yeah I read that after posting. I bet if it did exist they'd try to buy the rights to it though.
