A thread about our depraved healthcare system, and a plea. In 2021, my friend Carole was diagnosed with terminal stage four cancer. A single parent with two kids, she had just turned 43. In 2017, she had watched her brother Chris die of the same cancer. He too was in his 40s.

Not only has the former CEO of FTX, Sam Bankman, not been arrested for stealing billions of dollars, but he is speaking at a @nytimes business summit. The justice system is so broken.
