    ROFL It’s tragic that Amazon is in the insurance game…That’s when you know it’s a true dystopian present getting started in full gear.

        I just tried to say something sarcastic but, yeah; In truth, I do agree with your assessment of Amazon OneHealth. As it’s a hybrid of a low end concierge medicine program with a tiny amount of insurance-like benefits.

      My Prime membership pays for itself about 8 times over because the one medication I have is so cheap through Prime vs insurance.

      But it’s a little worrying that the company famous for undercutting competitors to drive them out of the market is doing this with healthcare.

      From what I could find out you still have to pay the office you use. This subscription doesn’t actually cover the actual appointments.

      I could be wrong, but that is what it seemed like to me.

    How the fuck can a bookstore evolve into a healthcare provider? Where the fuck are we living anyway? I need this to stop.

      Don’t worry, with all the pollution, war and climate change going around, we ain’t staying on this planet for too much longer.
