If people knew how often health corporations overcharged taxpayers, their heads would spin. I worked on one case where they were gouging active duty service members by overcharging for breast pumps. Just one of thousands of examples media.defense.gov/2023/Jul/31/...

Oof. Officials are not even trying to come up with a number of fatalities. My heart is with the first responders as well as those just trying to survive. 💔
