fuck this fucking system
Why do I bother to work at all when I just get fucked over by doctors and my insurance and my gap insurance I have to pay the deductible in my insurance? Why don’t I just steal things and surf?
fuck this fucking system
@Fuego One of the things that made yesterday rough for me (and a bit of today, too) is that my insurance provider insists I try yet another depression medication – I guess five times might be the magic number? – before they'll pay for a treatment that might work for longer than two months.
It's not just that they're willing to destroy people's lives for the bottom line. It's that they do things that way even when they'd save money by being less bastardly.
fuck this fucking system
@ElectricKeet I think their idea is that if they make it horrible enough, even if it costs them more in the short term, you’ll give up seeking medical care at all
fuck this fucking system
@Fuego @ElectricKeet I'm 99% certain this is exactly the case.
It's like Comcast customer support: If it's awful enough, you'll only call them after you've explored literally every other available option. This means a smaller call volume, which means they need fewer call center employees, which means more money.
Capitalism is a fuck.
