    I quite like this article. In a way, it highlights that anything that is a need, can be inflate dby the same amount as inflation as people won't turn it down. From a financial standpoint, it's a pretty good choice to invest in the healthcare sector. But from an ethical standpoint, it really mean that we treat people just as revenue and those who don't keep with the pace of inflation, either wages or they don't invest etc. Could be deprived from things they need or go into severe debt. Just a friendly reminder that even while we profit sometimes we need to stop thinking of humans simply as revenue, profits and data but as people as well
