"Our desire not to be inferior to others in terms of performance, combined with the idea that we can freely choose to go the extra mile, can lead to self-exploitation. We force ourselves to go beyond what is good for us — until we burn out." - Berend van der Kolk (The Quantified Society)

The behaviour of US pharmaceutical companies in lobbying the US govt to undermine our PBS is outrageous. It's the worst kind of bad corporate citizen. Reputability clearly matters not. #cancer #cancerdrugs #pbs abc.net.au/news/2025-07-0…
