Politicians, healthcare workers, and the public are in a never-ending three-way tug-of-war. Politicians promise the world, claiming they’ll fix everything, while healthcare workers are the ones stuck picking up the pieces—literally, because no one told them how to fit all those broken promises into a single hospital room. Meanwhile, the public is standing in line, waiting to see a doctor, only to realize that their appointment is scheduled for six months from now and they’ll need to sell a kidney just to afford the co-pay. Doctors and nurses are running around like they’re in a high-stakes game of Twister, trying to keep everyone alive while politicians are busy arguing over which flavor of reform sounds best on Twitter. At the end of the day, everyone just wants to be healthy, but the system is like a game of “Simon Says”—except Simon is out to lunch, and the rules keep changing.
