Reply to comment by notablyunfamous in Connecticut lawmakers considering legislation to give terminally ill patients medical aid in dying by 76before84

And....dead people don't make drug companies or insurance companies profit. Scroll up for context lol

And when people say "free" they mean there is no direct expense. Like no shit taxes go to fund things. Everything costs money because we have designed it that way. Making record profits for shareholders while a majority of bankruptcies in the US are due to medical bills is immoral. Focus on that instead.

I know what people mean, but they don’t often consider it.. especially young people. And yes, it’s plenty profitable because there’s 7 almost 8 billion people. Everyone dies. There’s always money to be made and saved. You’re thinking too shallow and short term.
