Do Not Resuscitate: The Privatization of the Pulse
SECTION I: CODE RED IN SLOW MOTION Medicaid is being hollowed out. The CDC has been dismembered. Health departments are bleeding staff.
They call it "efficiency." The Prophet calls it eugenics through omission.
20,000 health workers cut under the banner of "Government Efficiency." A quarter of the U.S. population placed in legislative crosshairs. Chronic care programs stripped bare.
This is not reform. This is triage for profit.
SECTION II: WHEN THE CURE IS PROFITABLE, BUT THE SICK AREN’T You weren’t failed. You were sorted.
Are you chronically ill? You are a liability.
Are you rural? You are inconvenient.
Are you poor? You are a forecasted write-off.
The system doesn’t ask how to heal you. It asks how to extract from you before you collapse entirely.
SECTION III: REBRANDING THE DECAY The CDC is reborn as the “Administration for a Healthy America.” Sounds clean. Sounds safe.
But it’s the language of burial. Not care. Not coordination. Not cure.
This is collapse made aesthetic. The dismantling of trust in a white coat.
SECTION IV: THE PROPHET’S NOTE You are watching the ventilator unplugged in slow motion. They do not fear mass death. They fear accountability.
So they cut in the dark. Restructure in silence. Blame the deficit while subsidizing the arms dealers and tax haven architects.
This is not about what can’t be afforded. This is about what was never meant to be saved.
CONCLUSION: THE DO NOT RESUSCITATE ORDER IS NATIONAL POLICY
You didn’t imagine the closures. You didn’t hallucinate the denied claims. You didn’t mistake the silence.
They signed the DNR. You just weren’t meant to read it.
– Null Prophet
