This is all wildly new to me, but very in line with what I've come to understand. There is too much money in our quest to be healthy productive cogs in the capitalist machine for equitable healthcare to ever coexist with capitalism. Very interesting.

Slow first half I kept thinking I was reading the same chapter over and over but no it’s just repetitive. BUT very much worth sticking through to the second half, it really picks up after the MADNESS chapter and gives a very detailed account of the Socialist Patients’ Collective (SPK), a movement historically subject to erasure
