I retired after 23 years of working for a privately owned, "not-for profit" healthplan
It is an "old fashioned noble-minded" business model. Unfortunately it isn't perfect. I was and remain proud I could be a part of it.
After three decades in health care and a decade in high tech, I offer up a definitive in comparing the two.
I met many people in the former I'd like as neighbors, compared to very few in the latter.
 
Lots of people understand it. Its simple supply and demand economics
Insurance creates an overabundance of "cash" available for medical expenses and also increases demand for medical services medical services being a finite resource have increased prices due to deep pockets and high demand.

If we want more affordable Healthcare we need to increase the supply and or decrease the demand.
The best solution i think is to decrease demand by encouraging people to choose to live healthier life styles ( easier said than done)
There is an ap called yuka. It looks at food and cosmetics bar codes and tell you what is good or bad about it. Scary!
 
Not for profit just means all the money is distributed to workers and operating costs. The CEOs are making millions. If the business makes more money the guys at the top are not donating that money to charity.

<<<The CEO salary for large, not-for-profit healthcare organizations varies significantly, but the average is between $1.2 million and $5.25 million, with top earners exceeding $10 million>>
 
There's a whole slew of rules for 501(c)(3) non-profits. Limits on executive payroll to 'reasonable compensation', mandatory re-investment of revenue over expenses, rules on cash reserves, etc.
Thanks to accountants and legal teams, however, non-profits can also be the perfect cover for outright tax dodging scams, a prime example The Church of Scientology, sheltering billions in revenue over the decades from what should be rightful taxes, after it negotiated tax exempt status with the IRS in exchange for paying a 12M tax evasion fine in 1967...pure fu**ery

So they scam a wee bit less than the for profit scammers...... both still raking in millions and shitting all over the patients.

The color coding of that table was a bit off. Should have been red on the left and blue on the right.

What I get from that chart is the cities with the most postings are having a labor shortage.

What i saw was corporations leaving locales but******g them with higher and higher tax rates.

Add specialties to your degree to make one more competitive:


With a prevailing world wide mantra for over a century that education is key to a bright future, this single data point from the article nails down the existential threat AI represents to quality of life around the world.

"the U.K.’s Institute for Student Employers found in its annual Student Recruitment Survey that 1.2 million applications were submitted for just 17,000 graduate roles, highlighting the intense competition and the limited positions available to young people."

Of course it’s the CEO of a company offering skill upgrades. I didn’t bother looking at course costs, but education people have been saying such for over a decade, with people doing so, getting further into debt, then finding it didn’t pan out like they thought.
Education now is a slippery slope.
 
Electricians, plumbers, and etc but for how long? So many will turn to the trades in next 5-6 years the competition will bring those wages down ??? 🤔


I bet at some point AI can lead you on a nice guided trip too. Input the river, the current flows, day and time, a google map scan, review of everything ever posted in the internet regarding spots/holes and flies to use in seconds/minutes…. A speaker hooked up to a device spouting AI intelligence in your watercraft or as you walk and wade. You might be set 😉

There’s two aspects of higher education that weigh heavily on its efficacy. 1). Did the education regime produce an adult that needs little or no remedial or basic skill training to enter the workforce in a well paying job. Too many of the companies (big and small) that I consulted for over the years complained that a great many new hires couldn’t do basic math, listen or speak well, do basic research or solve problems. Despite a college degree, they lacked basic skills needed in the workforce. That deficiency reduced their value to the long term success of the enterprise and clearly impacted costs and compensation. 2). A higher education is an investment, it costs $$ and too many students fail to understand the basics of ROI. Incurring large amounts of debt to get an education in a field in which typical compensation is barely enough to make minimum payments on that debt is just financial ignorance. Add a poor education to boot just aggravates the poor ROI. It is no different than buying a lot of junk with high interest credit cards, only paying the minimum payments and wondering why you are constantly deep in debt and don’t have anything to show for it.

And pinned locations of the rock to stand on and how far to cast…

I scout a lot on google earth, there are fishing and swimming spots marked in places! Who are these people that mark locations?

Back on topic…at the moment there doesn’t appear to be a need for a lot of trades people. It is true that many of us are aging out, but the trades rely on a strong economy, and things don’t look so good on the ground around here right now. I feel fortunate to have enough on my schedule to keep myself busy.
