This MFer would have happily dropped all unvaxed folks from their plans if not for SCOTUS and if the virus hadn't petered out.
And that alone warrants his death, IMO

Greed would be taking far more than you need while other people are suffering.
quote:Of couse not. But when "caring" becomes "take other people's money" it's not the same.
Caring about your family first and foremost isn't greed.

It's survival.

This doesnt work for medical services. People will go bankrupt and homeless just to stay alive.

"I mean, I do think at a certain point you've made enough money."
Who determines when looking after your family becomes "greed"?

Like all good collectivists, they assume this man should work for the public good, and not his own interests.

Undermining our trust in the justice system doesn't help. They are getting shite on (rightfully in many cases) by a huge portion of the population.
It makes people feel a lot more comfortable when someone takes justice in their own hands when they don't think it will be served thought the actual justice system.
Shaping up the justice system so that people actually believe it works would definitely help curb this behavior.
That helps but doesn't address the root cause...a culture of envy and hate based on someone's financial class.

I went to a seminar on dealing with health care insurance companies. One former claims agent said that come Friday afternoon everyone cleared their desks of pending claims into the trash.
This why we are where we are.
Treat people like humans and then maybe a crazy one wont try to take matters into their own hands.
Laws of the free market are subordinate to the laws of nature.

People see “CEO” and assume that it was work related.
Anyone celebrating this murder is a garbage human being.

I see why this guy’s death bothers you so much.

Explain what this means. I believe you are misguided.

Kaiser may not deny a lot of claims….but I’ll take my chances with any provider other than Kaiser.

Anyone else seeing people kinda give the about yesterday's assassination?
Heck, just look at the thread over on the OT about it, many of them are openly celebrating. I get that insurance companies are scummy but murdering people in cold blood isn't how a civil society does things

Typically, I would consider their reaction as no big deal until I realize that it's the exact same type of people that built statues and murals to George Floyd.
We're a morally bankrupt society on both ends.
I don't get the George Floyd statues part of the comment, but to the rest of your post -
Maybe you're reading it wrong. As I think about it, and I'm conflicted about the assassination, someone like Mayorkas comes to mind. Imagine Dems keeping control and that motherfricker continuing to lie, break our own laws, and flood the country with illegals and then lavish benefits on them - courtesy of the American tax payer. Would you be twisted up in knots over someone taking that fricker out?
How about Fauci during the Covid scam?
I've thought about business "leaders" in this context before, but more politically active ones like Gates, Zuckerberg and Soros.

Seems like the other way around. The people paid their bills only for the services not to be rendered. At double the market average mind you.

You're better than that.
