I saw a Tik Tok last night where someone made a slideshow of all of the C suite executives for the major insurance companies. It had their names, their positions, their salaries, and their home cities.
It had a few hundred thousands likes when I viewed it. The comment section was pretty much a big celebratory conversation of taking these people out and how CEOs need to exist knowing their life is on the line based on the decisions they make.
I get that people are frustrated with wealth disparity, but as we've discussed here already, this seems like a pretty big step into a timeline that's darker than we might desire.

Are they still on LinkedIn?

I hope they have good insurance

Maybe instead of hiding realize the people’s disdain for your business and make it better.

I mean they’re all publicly traded so I’m assuming that info wouldn’t be hard to get as a result.
Either way, while I don’t condone what happened, maybe it’s time insurance companies take a long look at why people feel the way they do in the wake of what happened?

That disdain is mostly misplaced. But the types that are pushing the narrative that the shooting is a good thing are never going to turn against daddy government.

It’s sad that like 1/4 of presidents have been shot at and they only get 250k but ceos make like 100 million and have barely been shot at

this is the correct sentiment.
fwiw, don’t browse the topic over on Reddit. It’s being celebrated on the front page.

With regards to medical claims, I think it's a little more than just wealth disparity. People are paying thousands of dollars for insurance and then necessary procedures get denied because some person with no medical background doesn't think it is necessary - no matter what the doctors say.
It sucks because you are at the mercy of whomever looks at your claim. I had a small procedure denied twice. The third time I called the person approved it. This wasn't life or death, so it ended up being just a huge inconvenience, but other people are in different situations and may feel they have no recourse and have to resort to extreme measures.

If you took positions that exploited other citizens back in the day you often faced consequences for it. Tax collectors and executioners were well paid partly because they became public outcasts for their work.
We are all adults and know that what just happened in New York shouldn't happen again to someone else just because of their position, BUT if we can channel this event into some civilized scrutiny/consequences for people who choose to exploit others' misery for a living then it could ultimately be a good thing.
What I think will actually happen though is that you'll get a few copycats who watched Fight Club a few too many times, and talks about a single-payer system and the abolition of private insurance will really ramp up.

Yes, but insurance companies are not a public service. They are part of capitalism just like any other business. They have zero incentive to play by different rules even if it would be more ethical and moral to do so.
It's kind of like Trump getting called out by Hillary for taking advantage of tax loopholes. He said, "Yeah, they're bullshite and need fixing. But why would I not take advantage of them if they were offered to me?"
If people don't like insurance companies and want healthcare to be a human right that is affordable and not based on profit-generating business practices, they we need a fundamental shift in our healthcare system.
It's a pitfall of capitalism. If you're not doing all you can to maximize profits, someone else will and investors will switch to them thus killing your business.

This goes out the window when you are part of a regulated industry. If it were capitalism then someone could start a competitor and offer lower prices. Thats almost impossible in reality.
I can’t believe anyone would shill for these insurance companies in the name of “capitalism.” Healthcare costs are the number one thing outside of a physical attack that could end our society. It’s crippling economically

I want to feel bad for the Healthcare CEO but my sympathy is out of network.
Maybe more leadership of companies that constantly screw us over should actually think the American public is sick of their BS... Probably not yet though, cause that sickness treatment was denied

Yep, insurance companies make money by denying claims. Everyone needs to realize that.

I don't disagree. We just dropped our insurance because we were tired of chasing down in network people or random costs that arose from things that should have just been co-pay.
We're just doing a concierge service for $200 a month and an HSA account at this point.
I have 0 love for the insurance industry, but i don't wish death on anybody.
i'm absolutely shocked at the amount of people that are happy with or celebrating this death. I was listening to Jimmy Dore and the guy was almost beside himself about it, which is something i expect from the far right or left.
