For-profit healthcare makes ill-gotten gains. It’s not that doctors and hospitals shouldn’t receive recompense for services given. It’s that corporatized medicine makes more money from a sick society than a healthy one. Shareholder value and not patient health is what drives decisions. There is an insidious financial incentive to keep you as a repeat customer. The profit from your miseries are literally gains that are ill-gotten.

Why would the gazillion dollar health care business would want to find a cure for anything. That would be a really poor business strategy.
This works on so many levels... The caduceus snakes becoming dollar signs. The ill-gotten gains literally gotten from people who were deliberately made ill and thus gains were ill-gotten from their illness. The gold eagle which is supposed to represent the birth of liberty being turned into a debased profit vehicle. Well done sir, this picture paints and thousand words.
