"private equity acquisition of health facilities leads to worsening patient outcomes, including death."

And now Trump is well on his way to making it worse.

--> This is what Reform LTD want for the UK. <--

Private equity takeover of US hospitals led to rise in patient deaths.

Cuts to staffing/investment; high debt, profiteering; worse patient outcomes.

More deaths in nursing homes, increased post-operative complications

Why is UK Govt handing the NHS to PE? Why no investigation of the impact of PE?
Private equity takeover of hospitals led to rise in Medicare emergency patient deaths, says study
Study found seven more deaths per 10,000 patients in private equity hospitals’ versus non-private equity hospitals

Here’s the latest scoop being spread by right wing gobshites. Except:
-he’s not a teacher, he’s an assistant
-the school didn’t sack him, he works for an agency
-they stopped using him not for putting up flags but for posting racist bollocks and misinformation online.

The problem when dealing with people this ignorant is that there is no useful common point of reference to work from:
You basically need to take them right back to their first day of school and start the whole science curriculum over...
A post from some random account that reveals significant ignorance (to anyone who paid even a little attention at school):

Climate Crisis/Emergency predictions are based on computer modelling.

If the meteorological bureau cannot accurately predict the weather beyond 5-7 days then HOW ARE THEY PREDICTING CLIMATE CRISIS 20-50 YEARS IN THE FUTURE.

Obviously a scam.

WHITE HYPOCRISY

White people are discovering what Western culture has always looked-like to Black people. Whites didn't care before because it benefitted them. Now that those benefits are dying-on-the-vine, it's far too late to do anything about it. Sic semper tyrannis:

The accusation by Israel that Palestinians use “human shields” appears highly hypocritical given secret bases they built directly underneath an Israeli civilian tower!

Hamas gathering forces and working to reassert control sure doesn’t look like Hamas disarming and accepting an international security force in charge of Gaza.

Weren’t we told to gush with praise for the brilliant diplomacy that solved the big problems? Could’ve sworn that, it was just this week.
Gaza: Hamas mobilises fighters as fears of internal violence mount
Clashes have already taken place between the group and an armed clan in Gaza City.

Israel has destroyed the "ceasefire" in hours.

It is murdering Palestinians, and maintaining its illegal siege.

Not a ceasefire.

The problem is, racism trumps (no pun intended) everything.
