“It seems to me that some of the wealthiest and most powerful individuals in our society think they can create one kind of world for everyone—a world where human life is disposable and as cheap as it can possibly be made—but then think they don’t have to live in the world they’ve forced us all to occupy, too. They think they can make a world where some people matter and other people don’t, and in so doing will remain perpetually the ones who matter. They’re certainly going to try to make it so. There are shocking policies already in place and even more shocking ones being proposed. I think we will find that wealthy and powerful and influential people, who have decided that our healthcare system is very complicated and its problems intractable and unsolvable, will suddenly find that structural changes have become very simple and easy when the topic is not the overall well-being of humans in society, but rather the safety and security and reputations of those who generate profit by destroying the overall well-being of humans in society. I think the murder of a CEO will be treated as dangerous, in a way that millions and millions of people suffering for years in despair and dying broke decade after decade never has been, because our society values corporate profit over human health. Yes, they’ll try to make us live in one world while living in a different one. And for a while, that might even seem true—but it’s a lie. The truth is, we all live in the same world. It seems to me that when you create a world where human life has been made as cheap as possible, you will eventually find you live in a world where your human life is deemed by others to be cheap, too. It seems to me that when you create a world that is deliberately callous about human life, you live in that world—which might be a problem, if you are a human.”
