I followed Rob's work on this in real time, it was a master class in calling out a company with no value. He just continually laid out how numbers didn't add up, and laid out the inevitable conclusion. I had no idea about the threats, but I do know his wife had a baby while all this was going on.

It pretty much parallels private equity leveraged buyouts (LBOs) and the typical pattern of buying up medical practices, hospitals, veterinary clinics, industrial capacitor manufacturers, and everything else that's not nailed down and doing asset stripping.

Private equity and for-profit deathcare are evil. When these assholes buy up tiny hospitals, shutter specialty services, and use this as an excuse to sell more life flights while delaying care, the shit is way past criminally rotten.

Oh and insurance is doubling for tens of millions of Americans next year.

Then there's Medicare Advantage bankruptcies because it's fake, predatory deathcare.

Nonprofit and single-payer healthcare or bust, because ordinary Americans need a humane amount of welfare too, not just another trillion showered on the morbidly rich.
