[DRAFT] Putting The Care In Healthcare

Postby Floofybit » Fri Jan 27, 2023 12:57 pm

The worst issue creator is back at you with another hit solo. Bare with me. Hopefully it's not hell to read. :P

Preface: After your adventurous older brother was in a hiking accident, he was subject to emergency surgery. Though his surgery went smoothly, he had stories of his not-so-great recovery service. Throughout his overnight stay he was only given a half-knitten quilt, some store bought apple juice, and a pack of cheese and crackers with a tiny red stick.

Validation: Public Healthcare

Option 1: "It was terrible!" complains your brother, @@RANDOMFIRSTNAME@@. "Sure, you can expect poorer quality when services are free, but that was just too much. I hoped for an easy recovery, not choosing between sleeping cold or sleeping itchy. If you don't want to add insult to injury, allocate more money to public healthcare!" He punches your shoulder affectionately. "See? I can make good solutions too."

Outcome: @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ commonly fake injuries to get gourmet hospital food

Option 2: "That's just gonna give us more taxes!" exclaims @@RANDOMNAME@@, ex-CEO of @@CAPITAL@@ Healthcare. "Maybe it's time to stop nannying us like a wounded child, and let us make our own dang decisions! Hand healthcare back to the private sector and we'll breathe life back into your precious after-surgery care. Sure, it'll be more expensive for the civilians, but that's what welfare funds are for, right?"

Outcome: any suggestions?

Option 3: "If anything, we need less recovery amenities," argues @@RANDOMNAME@@, working @@HIS@@ third overtime this week. "We give a blanket, a bite of food, and a cup of liquid for all the patient's meals. Do you know how many patients I have to tend to hourly? At first, it doesn't seem like I do much, but first they'll be asking for a pillow, and then they're asking for a heated blanket, a teddy bear, and a bedtime story! Use just enough money to give patients basic needs, and yes, I'll be blatant with things. Put the rest of the bloody money into my rubbish paycheck! If the patients want anything other special items, they can bring them from their own darn homes!"

Outcome: doctors have to help patients and their own homes because it's more comfortable

They didn't even give him a full meal, why is that acceptable?

Should I edit the issue to give him a full (crappy but still full) meal, or is it safe to say that if you want to fix the no-full-meal issue, you have to pick option 1 or 2?

Yep

And then an other option which encourages poor food to encourage people to leave hospital quicker (the fewer nights a person spends in hospital, the less you pay)

Possible suggestions for Effect/Outcome in Option 2 (which could be Capitalist only in addition) :
-'the rich are treated like kings while the poor get no treatment at all'
-'@@REGION@@ Health Organization has condemned @@NAME@@ for abolishing Universal Healthcare' ('@@REGION@@ Health Organization' can be replaced by 'countless healthcare activists' (plus 'have' instead of has), or
-'@@LEADER@@ has been labelled "The Big Puppet of Big Pharma" '
(a simpler suggestion being along the lines of; 'only the rich can have 'x' now')

(your choice if you are to use one of the above)

Instead of getting cheese and crackers for free, patients now get more cheese and crackers for 60 grand.

-Suggestion for Outcome 2
