Lots of focus now around the flaws of the american healthcare system. What can we do now to ensure a better future?

    Protest, riot, strike, etc. The government is owned by the robber barons. Aligning healthcare with a profit motive is violence of the highest order and we should respond in kind.

      Yup. Peaceful protest doesn’t register to rich people. They can’t hear it over the clinking sounds of their champagne glasses as they toast their profit margins.

        For the rich to get the message you have to hit them where it hurts, in their wallets, their balance sheets, their portfolios, or their vital organs.

        Effective peaceful protests do this. If your peaceful protest doesn’t make a businesses have a loss it will be ineffective.
