The whole profit no matter the cost concept pisses me off. I see it happening in my work over the 15+ years I’ve been in the industry. It was and still is a great area to work in but it’s so hyper focused on bringing in as much money as possible but yet it struggles beyond belief in retaining employees, having quality outcomes and treating the people that work in it with respect. The only reason it makes money is because it’s charging exorbitant fees and that is only going up. It’s a damn shame.
At the core of that is all of these damn societal issues. Failing families, costs ballooning. What the hell is going to be the outcome?
I really can't imagine that it amounts to anything good. There is a new class of the socially healthy, and the socially outcast quickly forming. When social fitness is low, costs to society are very high. Who is paying the costs?
