Here’s the state of America right now — re: the CEO of UH who was murdered:
In one stark example, a Facebook post by UnitedHealth Group expressing sadness about UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s death received 62,000 reactions – 57,000 of them laughing emojis. UnitedHealth Group is the parent company of UnitedHealthcare, the division that Thompson ran.
That’s what discourse has disintegrated into. Laughing at murder.
Musk can say and do whatever he wants with little consequence — same with Trump.
They're laughing at the murder of a man who's CEO of a company that steals from you ... the clue is in what was written on the bullets .... which is also on the training plan of the company employees
USA Healthcare is a mess

Oh, I see. So healthcare being a “mess” and him “stealing from me” makes his murder funny.They're laughing at the murder of a man who's CEO of a company that steals from you ... the clue is in what was written on the bullets .... which is also on the training plan of the company employees

Wonder how many of these laughers would do it in the face of his wife and kids.
Stupid amoral cowards.

The law failed to hold him to account so a vigilante stepped in. If you setup a company to have values of the wild west don't be surprised when you meet your end at the hands of a bandit.
The world will not miss that man.
America's gun problem becomes the perfect real life buffer against its problem with endemic corruption in the healthcare insurance industry.
I don't think people take the political views of the owner into account when buying a new car. The Ford family were literal Nazis and they didn't do too badly.
America has lots of nazis (and did in the 30s & 40s too) so not sure that’s the best comparison.

You reckon most people in a country where black people couldn't use the same doors as white people were worried about someone being a white supremacist?I don't think people take the political views of the owner into account when buying a new car. The Ford family were literal Nazis and they didn't do too badly.
As part of his role I bet he'll remove subsidies on Electric vehicles in the USA .... crippling other companies that don't have the economies of scale that Tesla have.
Tesla don’t have economies of scale. They’re a tiny car manufacturer. Even in the states they’re something like 10th in car sales. Worldwide they’re a minnow.
Removing EV subsidies in the USA would probably bankrupt Tesla by the end of Trumps next term.

His death has united the right and left in acknowledging the fuckkery of your healthcare system.Here’s the state of America right now — re: the CEO of UH who was murdered:

This is madness.His death has united the right and left in acknowledging the fuckkery of your healthcare system.
A man was shot in the back in cold blood.
As fucked up as our system is — and I could tell you a thing or two about UHC claims — this isn’t the answer.
There is no other human response.
