Obamacare Made This Inevitable. Our Response to the Global Pandemic Just Hurried Things Along.

We Are On The Verge Of The Greatest Shortage Of Healthcare Workers In US History - The Lid (lidblog.com)

We already had a shortage of healthcare workers before the pandemic came along, and this is something that I have written about multiple times over the years.  When COVID started sweeping across America, many healthcare facilities were absolutely overwhelmed, and there were some healthcare workers that couldn’t handle the pressure.  Many ended up leaving, and that resulted in the shortages getting even worse.

Of course, countless numbers of healthcare workers have been faithful to keep showing up for work day after day throughout this entire crisis, and now thousands upon thousands of them are being ruthlessly discarded.  Mandates that have been instituted by major healthcare providers, state governments, and the federal government are going to force the firing of countless numbers of COVID pandemic heroes.

This is a problem that will last for years. In fact, we may never recover. You can’t just go out and hire new healthcare workers off the street.
