    I find it a bit reductive to call palliative care a moneymaking scheme overall. Especially cruel to workers in the field, which is one of the toughest one as far as mental health goes.

      Yeah I do understand what you are saying. And I may have gone too overboard with my pessimism. This being cancer and all.

      It’s just that too many bad actors have taken advantage of regular folks and their situations. It’s hard not to react in a pessimistic view when there’s hardly any good news to come by, or any good development that gets twisted into a nightmare of a tool just to take advantage of people’s hope for better care.
