Ha! I remember the devs tweeting during the Helldivers 2 fiasco barely a week ago that they WOULDN'T require a PSN account for PC. What a bunch of shameless liars.
Because demand and supply don't self-regulate healthcare. How much do you value your health? How about your own life? Oh, you're willing to pay ANYTHING to live? Even if it's not life threatening as long as it leaves you crippled, unable to work, you may as well be dead.
As a customer the only way to be an informed buyer is to be a physician yourself. Even if a treatment doesn't work you still get charged, no refunds!
For-profit healthcare is fundamentally inhumane and is incompatible with capitalism. The forces that would usually regulate the market are non-existant. Demand is infinite, undercutting is pointless, customers have no way to be informed.
Gandhi's methods only worked because the British Empire was already spread thin, barely maintaining control over India. Gandhi was simply the final drop that spilled the glass.
Peaceful protests only work when those in power, and those protesting know that if the peaceful approach fails, a violent one will follow.
Sadly, the only way to persuade those in power to do what you want is to either win them over with material value, or threaten them and their families with violence, regardless of government type.
Honestly, not much that can be done other than voicing concerns to your representatives. Thankfully, here in EU a resolution has been passed earlier this year banning BPA and other bisphenols. Hopefully it gets put into action soon.
