They presumably come from Voted.

Wait times are a factor of the number of doctors though. Like in the UK private health insurance may let you skip the queue, but that’s only because there’s relatively few people capable or willing to take up the private slots. If everyone had health insurance then the “faster” pathway no longer exists (or more likely people who’re willing to pay more skip the queue).

I don’t think most people begrudge owners a reasonable profit, especially if they’re running things and taking an active role in the business and pay their workers well. It’s not unreasonable to have some cash squirrelled away for the business having hard times either.

For me the issue is megacorps who exploit workers shaving working conditions and benefits until it’s bare bones, expecting more work from fewer people at higher quality, paying the bare minimum after being lucky enough to be the first to market with some idea so they’re in a completely dominant position and making billions.

That’s why I like headphones, sends a clearer signal I feel.
