At this writing, I am an unemployed ex physician in the U.S. with zero health insurance. Health insurance is a scam. Do you know how much time I have spent fighting the companies to approve something to save human life? They refute my expertise and deny care at every turn. That is the only thing they insure in this profit over humanity empire.

It is time we stop lining the pockets of billionaire insurance companies. A parasitic society of no reciprocity is bound to self-destruct.

I spent my life serving on front lines caring for resource poor communities around the world.

What I get in return for my service: no access to “health.” So be it.

I dont agree with the definition of health anyway. Wounded healers cannot guide others out of harms way without healing themselves.

I am learning how to care for myself in wholesome ways that my med school curriculum conveniently omitted. I am lucky enough to have gifts, training and experience to do so that most do not have.

If rejecting harms of society and turning towards wholesome ways makes me fringe, then please…

Call me fringe.
