42 percent of new cancer patients lose their life savings
Sometimes I’m just amazed that people haven’t risen up in bloody revolt yet. Recently my mother had a flare-up up radiation-induced pneumonitis and the PPO insurance she pays $14,000 annually wouldn’t approve a single unit of Advair. It took a week of talking to doctors and insurance drones to figure out that they were pushing her to an alternative that cost them $100 less.<p>If I woke up tomorrow and people were burning Wall Street to the ground I’d be less than shocked.
