If people realised how expensive and profit-driven healthcare is, would you still be so pro-medical model about it all?
Look at the cost of vet care - people can spend thousands per year on their pets (primarily cats and dogs), and there is a massive push to get people to have 'pet insurance'. A dog or cat can live between 10 and 15 years and you can potentially be paying $100k plus over it's lifetime for vet care. Do you pay that for your own healthcare?
if you take that cost and 'amplify' it to 'human scale', then the 'true cost' of healthcare for humans is revealed. The entire human healthcare industry is totally for-profit (ie. if it wasn't commercial viable healthcare would not exist in the form it does), so if you really had to pay the full cost, or be slugged with massive insurance premiums way bigger than what human health insurers charge now in order to be recovering the 'full cost' of things, would you still be so pro about it?
Would you still be so blinkered about things like Covid jabs, etc.?
