Right. Cuz if they can push your mom onto a lower cost anti-depressant, they make more money. And if she kills herself while they're fucking around with her meds, that works out perfectly - she was a loss for the company anyway. Ain't for-profit healthcare awesome?
Thank goodness we don't have that evil "socialized" medicine.
