Dragoneer's Passing
a year ago
As many of you have probably heard by now, the site's founder and owner Dragoneer passed away yesterday.
What did he die of? Being poor, apparently.
It sickens me that the so-called "Greatest country on earth" would rather let good people die for the sake of insurance executives' eight-figure bonuses being a few percentage points bigger. Like there just comes a point where making more money ISN'T the most important thing in the world anymore, you know?
The for-profit healthcare system is broken, it needs fixing, and the road to fixing it is paved with the bodies of people like Dragoneer, taken before their time because they didn't have enough money to satisfy the greed of shareholders.
