UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was fatally shot, with his wife revealing prior threats over healthcare coverage, raising questions about his controversial role.
“Killing one person is wrong, but causing millions to suffer and many to die due to lack of healthcare is obviously OK if you’re doing it for massive profit!“
“I Worked It Out. You Have Killed Two Point Three Three Eight People,” said the golem calmly.
“I have never laid a finger on anyone in my life, Mr Pump. I may be–– all the things you know I am, but I am not a killer! I have never so much as drawn a sword!”
"No, You Have Not. But You Have Stolen, Embezzled, Defrauded And Swindled Without Discrimination, Mr Lipvig. You Have Ruined Businesses And Destroyed Jobs. When Banks Fail, It Is Seldom Bankers Who Starve. Your Actions Have Taken Money From Those Who Had Little Enough To Begin With. In A Myriad Small Ways You Have Hastened The Deaths Of Many. You Do Not Know Them. You Did Not See Them Bleed. But You Snatched Bread From Their Mouths And Tore Clothes From Their Backs. For Sport, Mr Lipvig. For Sport. For The Joy Of The Game.
It’s worse than that. It’s not “lack of healthcare”, the people who were victimized had health insurance, they were just lied to. It’s people paying, thinking they’re covered, then UH’s algorithm denies their claims (90% of them) to increase their profits. While people die and families are bankrupted.
No. If it’s done “legally” then it’s OK. That’s why cops can murder people and it’s OK. As long as you can buy a politician or two to legalize the suffering you cause, you’re doing just fine.

They had health insurance, which is not health care.
Clearly. Edited to echo what you’re saying.

You’re forgetting that if it benefits the elite by causing the poor and or minorities to suffer, it is automatically legal!
