I can see your perspective, but healthcare isn't always a zero sum game. It can be empathetic and useful while also being profitable. It often isn't, but it can be.
Why does it HAVE to be profitable?
Why can't we just leave some things out of the whole madness?
It's not like we don't have enough stuff that can be made profitable already.
Just let your customers be healthy, have a roof over their head, water, electricity, internet. They'll have more time and money to spend on all the other profitable stuff.
It doesn't have to be EVERYTHING!
There is plenty of evidence that Hospitals, Nursing Homes operated by private equity have way more worse outcomes than those of other operators, even for-profit ones
