Hustling Humans How Obamacare turned the Rehab Industry into the Biggest Insurance Scam of Them All and How COVID made it Worse Karen Hunt aka KH Mezek This is a continuation from my last essay,  So You Wanna Be a Kingpin ?  I have seen firsthand too much of the devastation caused by the drug industry, legal and illegal. More than anything else, I believe our growing dependence on drugs is what is causing our downfall. " It's like hustling humans.
