Some provincial governments are purposely underfunding healthcare in their provinces in order to make it worse. The purpose behind this is to try and push for more private healthcare.

Some are trying similar things here in France. They've been doing that with many other public services too.

    They have success because people don't have a consistent, active defense. Heroes die, the laws of nature stay the same.

    And they always seem to take this end stage where awful people get in-charge and destroy the conditions that enabled them.

    It is because humans are inherently flawed in a fatal way, and are destined to wipe themselves.

    I hope something better founded replaces us.
