It is here, if you would like to read it and decide for yourself, if this is 'Marxist'. If the link doesn't work maybe one of you tech wizards can fix for me.

Seems to me it shines light on just one aspect of the superpowers way of doing things that differentiates it from many other nations. It really is all about wealth - misused, abused, and stolen wealth.

It really disgusts me how much profit these companies make, seems blatantly obvious to me they only care about profit and have been denying claims, hopefully this is a wakeup call for the insurance sector, I would not want to be a CEO of a health insurance company right now!
Yes they need a pool of money to fund many surgeries, but how much surplus are they getting and how much makes its way back to shareholders and/or the board?
Sounds like this CEO was getting quite a big pay packet.
Such a company shouldn't even be there for profit and be publicly traded, should be more of a similar model to Southern Cross.

Estimated that this company could fund all Americans cancer treatment and still make an extraordinary profit for shareholders.
Seriously corrupt system.
And our ACC uses American hmo definitions...

To put human life & suffering above making massive profit -or even any profit other than minimal, doesn't seem so very terrible. And that manifesto isn't even slightly 'marxist' fgs.
But I don't doubt that is exactly what it will be called...

The market place rules which means no rules at all and the governments are no where to be found, certainly not regulating and governing, the Corporates form unregulated monopolies and rip us all off.
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
