Im watching the news right now and apparently Kaiser Permanente (our local hospital) is laying off hundreds of staff

They need to protect profits.

One of the most classic ways to do that is to cut labor and make those who remain pick up the slack.

I went to Kaiser for an appointment yesterday, and man was the place dead. There were more staff than patients.
