That employers can dictate whether we take live saving action depending on how many pennies it’ll cost them.

If nothing else we must internalize this fact. i think many are still operating under the impression that their employers value their lives. We must understand viscerally that our lives do not, to them, at all. I think the rest takes care of itself once we get over that hump
