Sadly missed this exhibition at the Met, but if you love or are even mildly curious about modern art, this book will blow your mind. Highly recommend!
My printer finally printed something well. It’s been two years. I’m chuffed, though not expecting it will continue. Printers!😭

The big insurance companies and the PBMs they own, create almost all of the complications. They are able to do so because they control the flow of patients for hospitals/providers and drug manufacturers. They are the gatekeepers for trillions of dollars of healthcare spending. Everyone has to kiss their ass and accept the complications.
They do this via their control of networks of providers and drug formularies. That's it.
It's a simplification. But if we End their control of networks and formularies , healthcare can be transparent and affordable. Then the only question becomes how do patients that can't afford their care pay for it
Answer: We use the trillions we just saved to help them.
Healthcare is a very simple business. We go to the Dr. The Dr tell us what we need (if anything). The ONLY questions are:
1. What does it cost
2. How will the patient pay for it
Everything else is a complication. Unfortunately, those complications have removed all alignment between patients and the economics of healthcare

37 trillion dollars.
You read that right. Trillion. With a T.
That’s how much Republicans want to increase the debt to give tax cuts to their billionaire buddies.
