I don’t condone it but I understand it. The health insurance companies are bleeding America white thanks to Obamacare. The health insurance industry has essentially been regulated to the point of nationalization. The CEO who was shot was essentially a government employee and a real bastard of a bureaucrat.
My eyes are dry.
“The health insurance industry has essentially been regulated to the point of nationalization.”
Big business brings regulation upon themselves, and then some complain when they are trapped. But as long as they are fed a stream of income that keeps them in the black, they’ll play along. That’s why in theory, competent and educated citizens in control of their republic’s government would not allow this crap to happen.
I have to fight my healthcare insurance provider (Blue Cross/Blue Shield PPO) for the expensive biologic medication I need every month. It’s $6k. Every month, it’s the same b.s. with them denying it, having to go through appeal, and finally getting it LATE every month, only to have the cycle repeat every. damn. month.
I DO NOT understand murdering someone to draw attention to this issue AND I LIVE IT. It’s morally wrong on every level to murder someone to effect change like this..
Period.
Had this argument with my oldest son tonight. His opinion frankly disgusted me so much I walked out of his house (that I helped him buy.)
I am NOT with the crowd that cheered UHC’s CEO’s murder. I do not subscribe to the moral equivalency that crowd (and my own son) do, and I will stand and die on this hill. Their position is immoral and disggusting. As immoral and disgusting as UHC automatically denying claims via an algorithm.
