Healthcare as easily changed as….

Seems to me that the word “care” has been taken over by the marketing people and the politicians, so that it now has a commercial character to it. My guess is that the doctors and nurses practicing in the 1950s and before probably heard something much different in the word from what today’s do: they probably heard something akin to compassion. Today we hear “system” and “profits” and “codes.” We need to grow to be complete humans, no longer walking wallets.

This is not something that any business owns, but our culture and way of thinking does. So it is something that is as easily changed as changing our minds.

But we need to see it, and we need to decide, and those two steps are what stand between us and something better.
