In the land where they pay for their care,
Healthcare costs are enough to scare!
From premiums to bills,
It’s enough to give chills.
Good health comes with a hefty fare.


When Americans get sick, they may rue
The bills that they’ll later accrue.
The costs that they bear
Can cause quite a scare
As medical debt they struggle to chew.


The hospital visit was a fright
But the bill that came gave an even worse sight
An out-of-network fee
Was not part of the guarantee
Now the patient’s wallet is feeling quite light.


A visit to the hospital one day,
Shouldn’t cost more than you’re able to pay,
But if they go out of network,
A surprise bill can lurk,
And your wallet will start to decay.


Republicans sure hate Obamacare,
They’ve tried to repeal it everywhere!
But despite their resistance,
The law [stays] in existence,
And millions have coverage to spare.

    AI gets scarier by the day (see my recent post) but healthcare seems to be in a downward spiral as it gets more and more corporatized!

      Agreed on all fronts. I want to understand the AI tools, so I’m working with them. I don’t think we are (as a society) prepared for the disruption we’re about to see in industries like marketing — AI is going to churn out social media posts faster and better than an underpaid college intern, and it’s going to eat that entire category of jobs.
