    You must know health insurance has a contract with pages of what is covered what is not. But cool, jump on the popular bandwagon for upvotes.

      The native americans had lots of contracts and agreements with the U.S. government. It didn’t mean shit, and the government was still tyrannical.

      A contract is meaningless when corporations can:

      • bulldoze any citizen they like with legal teams
      • force people to have go through arbitration
      • delay and deny claims to demoralize claimants even if they have a valid claim
      • use AIs that deny cases for the sake of it

      They wield what is essentially unchecked and arbitrary power to the detriment of the people. It is cruel. It is oppressive. It fits the definition of tyranny easily.

            No need to argue, it’s clearly stated in the terms and conditions of any policy what is covered and what is excluded. As many as six appeal levels for denials as well as state insurance departments. But, sure go murder a company executive.

      Yeah, and King George III had all sorts of shit written down that people in governing roles agreed to. People under tyranny were pretty upset and tried diplomacy back then as well. Violence is what eventually solved it, and the people that went through that wanted to make sure violence was always an option, hence the 2nd amendment. Anyone, Republican or Democrat, that says otherwise is just wrong.

      It’s akin to saying one can always choose a different power company if they don’t like the terms. Most people get the health insurance through an employer. The choices you get are minimal if any.

      Unless you’re suggesting the best way to avoid conflict is just don’t get sick. Which is another level of wow.

      I don’t think recalling 15 pages of legal jargon is on someone’s mind when they need emergency medical care. But hey, they totally deserved it for taking an ambulance instead of driving themselves to the nearest in-network hospital 90 minutes away /s
