Chris Hedges: Capitalists Should Never Be Allowed Near a Healthcare System

To deny that Medicare for All is possible, or to say that it costs too much, is to propagate the toxic lies that deny that healthcare is a human right. Those who are complicit with these lies are also complicit in unfathomable suffering, fear and trauma, and the bankruptcies and deaths of thousands human beings every year. Let us all be clear on our values and what and who we stand with. Rather than aligning with those who are in the pockets of the insurance and pharmaceutical industries, whose roots are mired in heartlessness and greed and a deadly for-profit capitalist system, we can choose to actively unite in the dramatic changes that will alleviate the suffering in the world rather than contribute to it. — Molly
