I disagree that these problems didn't exist before the pandemic or that our experiences are unique to our generation or the time period in which we live at all. I read that Medicare reimbursement rates are lower than Obama care so while the appointment may not cost you anything you may not be first to be seen at a hospital. The Egyptians had doctors, scribes, herbalists, and embalming specialists so I don't really see the problem as a shortage of money, coin, knowledge, or time and rather the problem is low autonomy, toxic work environment, and underinvestment in the work force and not an act of God or a systemic problem but rather a political problem in the way that we frame and then react to stress according to our own egocentric way of thinking, do as I say not as I do.
