Record setting healthcare profits, for YEARS, and they can't be bothered to pay NURSES, color me surprised.

If you file a w2, your entire payscale is a carefully crafted amount to keep you being anything more than a wage slave

They're saying it's not about money, but they want better working conditions.

I didn't know nurses in the US get up to $160k per year with 120k being the norm. In Germany, the maximum is 48k€. I know it's not really comparable because of living costs and other factors but still, I didn't know it was literally 3 times as much.
