ICU Cost Maxes 30yrs In TNDOC

The cost of Health Care in the US has gotten so sky high, so here's a fun fact on it: TN fucked up not once but twice with some "home brew" lethal drug mix they had to come up with themselves tying to carryout the execution of this Pike woman. Apparently Big Pharma thinks it is best not to supply their drugs to kill people in executions, but it's fine to massively overcharge patients in the US Health Care System to keep life saving drugs out of their reach to kill them instead. Now Pike's been in a TN hospital since the night of the execution in an ICU unit on life support with the bill for it being picked up by the TN Department of Correction as she is still an inmate in their custody since their "home brew" couldn't kill her after two doses of it. With US health costs so batshit crazy high, this Pike woman's ICU care will exceed the cost of the 30yrs TN (est. $1.5M-$3M) has had her incarcerated for murder in just months.
