I’m always astonished by how little anyone cares about anyone else in modern day America. Exploiting other people, especially the weak, is just the most normal thing.

Acadia is a for-profit, publicly-traded disaster of a mental healthcare company. All of their facilities provide unethical care. Their turnover is universally off the charts because the working conditions are so awful. Every patient and every staff I’ve ever known who’s been through or worked at one of their facilities has nothing but awful things to say.

Tim Blair, a spokesman for Acadia, said in a statement that the company had a zero-tolerance policy for behavior that could put staff or patients in danger. “We reject any notion that we put profits over patients,”

I reject your reality and substitute our profits.
