    I work in healthcare and I’m all for socialized medicine or Medicare for all. The corporate hospitals do not act in the best interests of the patients. Some of them (like HCA) are inherently evil. They cut staffing, resources, and supplies to the bone, constantly running on the thinnest of margins leading to dangerously unsafe conditions for patients. Not to mention doctors, providers, nurses, and other healthcare workers are getting completely burned out. This is so they can please the shareholders and the executives can get their fat bonuses. Americans pay so much for healthcare and get so little in return.
