In this episode, we peel back the polished mask of modern medicine to reveal the machinery beneath. A system where sickness is strategy, and health is just bad business. They’ve made your body their balance sheet—every symptom a stream of revenue, every prescription a quiet transaction. The cartel doesn’t wear ski masks—they wear white coats and boardroom ties. What appears to be care is often something else entirely. Hidden deals, silent handouts, and a cycle designed not to cure, but keep you just sick enough that you keep coming back for more of their bad medicine. Welcome to the quiet hustle of the Medical Cartel.
