More than 40% of young voters say UnitedHealthcare CEO killing was ‘acceptable’: poll
NY Post ^ | 12/18/2024 | David Spector

A shocking number of young people support UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s killer, with 41 percent saying Luigi Mangione’s alleged actions are “acceptable,” an Emerson College poll has found.

Twenty-four percent of US voters ages 18 to 29 answered that Mangione’s alleged brazen execution was somewhat acceptable, and 17 percent said it was completely acceptable.

There was also a stark partisan split among those polled, with 22% of Democrats saying they find the alleged killer’s actions acceptable compared to only 12% of Republicans and 16% of independents who do so.

The poll of 1,000 voters was conducted last week.

Mangione was indicted Tuesday in New York on upgraded charges of murder as an act of terrorism.

My question is what do these demented idiots think is going to happen if we get rid of all the CEO'S? Some utopia is coming to form or something? Government "free' healthcare will solve everything? Please enlighten me.

This is deliberate. They are preparing the next generation for communist-style purges.

I suspect the 41% of the 18-29 year olds who support the murderer were spoiled rotten and never punished beyond timeout by their parents and caregivers as children.

What the American people know instinctively is that government, and the huge corporations that it controls, are attacking, impoverishing and enslaving them. That is why public sentiment has turned against both the government and their pet CEOs.

They are going to be so shocked when they learn that everything they wish to “redistribute” is created by capitalism and the collectivist paradise they will be stuck with creates nothing they wish to “redistribute.”

Just heard about a stat out of Canada.

One in Twenty Canadians are now opting for M.A.I.D. - Medical Assistance In Dying.

The majority of them are women.

This is what constitutes “health care” in the diseased liberal hivemind.

This is what they want for us.

Boy is that sad .
Canada does not treat any older sick people .
They basically tell them you cost too much and you out lived your usefulness so go die now . Here are some meds and go way now .
Canada is like bad redos of that 70s flicks Logans Run or Solent Green .

In all fairness, not “all” CEOs, just those whose avariciousness has run wild. Martin Shkreli, for example, who bought a company that made insulin, then jacked up its price well beyond the means of most to buy it, hoping for “free money” from insurance companies and the government.

Eventually his greed ran wild, and he was convicted of Securities fraud (2 counts) and Conspiracy to commit securities fraud. He served 6y and 5mo of a 7 year sentence.

Much of the problem lies with the pharma companies themselves. At some point, they achieved 200% profits on their products; but then got thinking that such extreme profits should be the norm for all of their profits. The excuse for this was they had to have such profits to afford the R&D of new products.

However, they only spent a fraction of their profits on R&D.

The current deceased pushed hard for AI software that would review appeals of service denials, and automatically reject well over 90% of them.

US health care has not gone full marxist, but instead allow some select and preferred private companies to work under the strict control of government political and social-engineering directives.

It’s really pure fascism. Mussolini and Hitler would recognize it quite well.

And who is responsible? A host of progressives from FDR onward. Obama and Pelosi are really more responsible than anyone else for our present system.

If one can rationalize abortion, one can rationalize anything. It all starts with an intrinsic respect for life itself. Intrinsic=acknowledgement of a knowable and loving Creator.

Take it for what it’s worth, but in the end it may be worth everything.
