The market? The market has a tendency to be pretty lenient when theres a human clawing it's way out of you without any consideration for the inconvenience or cost.
Might be one of those scenarios when someone should step in and dictate as opposed to just 'letting the market decide.'
When a guy comes into the ER with a gunshot wound are the Doctors all huddled around him bidding lower and lower prices to be the one to win the contract of helping him?
No? Thats right, because theres no competition when theres a crisis. I think thats...something, something, hippy/socialist BS...something, something....taking advantage of people in a vulnerable situation.
The hospital in tahiti was great, they even gave me a drink. Granted, I was pretty irritable without one. They may have just taken one for the team on that one.
