How many medical bankruptcies did the heroic men and women of the health insurance industry cause today? How many people are gonna die today because the infallable driver of the holy economy denied their treatment?
Are they even people to you? Or just feed stock for the machine?
At a certain scale humans become numbers on a spreadsheet because that’s the only way to deal with them.
And it’s also a comfortable way to view them if your income requires denying them medical care.
(Some of the earliest “computers” in the US were built to handle the census more efficiently.)
Yes, IBM’s Hollerith Tabulators. Which were also used in the 40’s in Germany by people who were just doing their jobs as a vital part of the German economy. Can you believe people wanted to crash the roaring German economy in the 1940s?
If there were fewer of us it would help make us seem more human.
Reducing people to numbers is a great way to rationalize exploiting the sick and the dying. Which is what you’re doing.
Okay, let’s fire you for the good of the country. Have fun with that.
I don’t operate the orphan crushing machine.

They’ve already been dehumanized by the system because it’s simply not possible to treat everyone like an individual when dealing with so many people.
At least that’s the excuse I get when I ask why I don’t fit on planes. “We need to design for the average and sorry if you don’t like it.”
Ok, number.
Yes lets do that. if my work contributed to the sufferring of my country/people, i would feel lucky thats all you did
Then everyone should quit every job because they’re all contributing to suffering in some way simply by existing.
Wait, suddenly I agree with you.
Your an idiot
*You’re
I walked into that one
I appreciate the opportunity to be the meme.
But seriously quit your job it’s hurting the world.
I have sent my resignation letter
Good on ya
