 I think it's spot on... the cost you charge for a medical treatment should roughly equal the value the person receives from it.  It's basically "my kingdom for a horse" style pricing.    
 You realize of course that doctors have absolutely nothing to do with what you are charged. You can thank your insurance company and the hospitals they collude with on that one. 
 I know.  Doctors are merely mindless agents of the insurance companies and hospital hire-ups, you are just following orders. 
 Bro, I don't work for insurance companies or a hospital. Direct primary care. I follow my own orders. 
 Not a "bro"... I'm a Habanero.  Also, you seem to think this whole conversation is about you for some reason...  it's a big world out there. 
 Well, you said "doctors are merely mindless agents of the insurance companies and hospital hire-ups, you are just following orders", no? So your statement is pretty broad and would include all "doctors". Therefore, I'm part of the conversation. Anyway, don't go to the fucking doctor then. I really don't give a shit. 
 I stand by my previous statements.  Also you are the first person on Nostr that I have seen say: "I am offended by xyz".  If nostr has a badge or award to give to people that act like a petulant child I think you would be a winner. 
 Sure, bro. 
 And I'm really happy for you that you stand by your previous statements with no basis in fact or proof to back them up. I'm not going to apologize for speaking up against someone making statements that I think are quite ridiculous. If that makes me a petulant child, then so be it. 
 Most of you don't really give a shit except about money 🤑💰💲💸.

Go to the doctor people if you need one. Try and find a good one, if you need one. It'll be hard, and buyer beware..🥴💀
