Hundreds of years from now, when this time period is documented in history books, my great great grandchildren will look back on our greed-driven for-profit healthcare system as a shameful black mark in American history, just like we look back at the history of slavery today. They’ll ask “How could a democracy have allowed random, treatable health conditions to ruin people financially?” They’ll be horrified by how greedy and barbaric we are as a people, same as how we look back at the Civil War era society that promoted slavery.
