You have a loved one died because a procedure that could save their life got denied because of the 'restrictions' and 'rules' that are put in place by some suit who isn't a medical professional, gets paid millions for saving the company money every with their cut backs on care.
Tell me you wouldn't want the same thing....or are you the "let the legal system handle it" type?
Also, murdered in cold blood? You think this guy was snow white?
Im not defending healthcare. Ive had relatives pass away from all sorts of ailments that they didn't have the money, education or insurance to treat. And No, it never once occured to me to murder an insurance exec.
Yes. Cold blood. Shooting an unsuspecting person in the back is cold blood.
Whether or not he was snow white is irrelevant. Im not hearing any other motive other than the professional job he held. He was running a business. Like all businesses his success looked at dollars and sense. Of course he's not a medical professional, he's a businessman. You wouldn't have a plastic surgeon run a multi billion dollar corporation anymore than youd have a CEO perform open heart surgery. he was essentially murdered for the job he was doing. At his level (CEO) he wasn't approving or denying individual claims. Hes not an insurance agent. And if he was its still not going to change anything at all about healthcare in this country.
This guy could've worked for any company. If he took the same cost cutting, budgeting and economic policies at Ford Motor Co., Kroger Co. Heinz co. Unilever etc... you wouldn't think he deserved to be gunned down in an ambush.
Yeah, its unpleasant. Insurance companies- whether auto, home or health, fuck people over every single day. That still doesn't make the coward who ambushed him from behind a hero.
