I understand where you're coming from in terms of why this trend is happening. But it's disturbing nonetheless. It may make a bus monitor feel good to make that much money for emotional distress. But I'd say that keeping a cancer patient alive with free care provided by generous donorship is pretty impactful and immediate. The bus monitor could still be happy with a lot less money coming her way. The kid in the hospital would die if the hospital could no longer
afford her care.
