a public option for Medicare. If you like your shitty United Healthcare then keep it. If not, here's a better option.

Biden never pushed it, nor did Harris.

Maybe if we get huge majorities in House and Senate, but can't imagine that happening anytime soon.

Amirite?

I hope his admittance to the E.R. was challenged by his insurance company.

Sorry to be glib but his ilk deserves it. No one deserves to be murdered but....

Other than one remark there, I'd say most here and there are in total agreement. It's true on every site I've seen. This might be the most unifying moment in this divided country.

Bad news for the oligarchs.

and government entities who write the laws that regulate these corporations will sit up and take note?

when a business is run on tight margins that actively make decisions every day that harm the politician's constituents, they should take notice.

For Profit health care is unethical. (And in my opinion, immoral.)

But, UHC had almost $390 billion in revenue with under $304 billion cost of revenue.
That's a 28% margin. I'm not willing to call that a tight margin. After SG&A, they still had a 10% total margin. That, of course, includes all depreciation which is a legitimate expense, but doesn't involve cash.
So, they were "harming the polticians' constituents" to lower the cost when they were already running on reasonably strong margins.
The margins don't appear to be the motivation. More likely, we can pin it on competitive greed.

I posted elsewhere about how this seems to be the one story uniting the left and the right. It’s fascinating..

that there is a strong and shared sentiment that health care companies are NOT looking out for the best interest of their clients.

I don't condone gleefully laughing about the murder of their CEO.

But what's apparent is that there is negative sentiment toward the way healthcare is run in our country, and we need a talented politician with strong passion and ability to move the needle to capture the zeitgeist before the Republicans do.

Maybe some good could come out of this shit show.

Also, don't do murder.

Maybe there is hope.

all i’m sayin, eat just 1 billionaire. the rest will fall in line.

i guess we’ll see. if the magats rise up against the oligarchs, start to see who the actual villains r, we may make it through this.

of their moral kinship with those mouth-breathing troglodytes.

Well done!

the right and left to intersect.

Life is full of surprises, not always pleasant.
