Nearly 7 in 10 Americans Say Insurers' Greed Played Role in UnitedHealthcare CEO Killing | Common Dreams
The killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson sparked public outrage over the for-profit health insurance industry's practices. A new poll shows majority blame insurers for Thompson's death.
What's wrong with the other 3/10?
This is what blows my mind. If we assume that the evidence found on Luigi is real, he explicitly told us that greed was the cause.
probably the generation of leaded paint and oil
Out of every poll on pretty much any topic, you can typically expect anywhere from 10%-33% of people who will believe just about anything no matter how asininely stupid the option they are choosing is
they believe all corporate greed and wealth consolidation is to blame.
Aren’t they?
Dead eyes type.
You can fool some of the people all of the time.
Probably those who disagree would be staunchly capitalists.
They misunderstood the question thinking it was about Luigi being the greedy one.
If this is the same poll that I saw a few days ago just being reported by another outlet, then the biggest headline should be that 11% put literally 0% of the fault on the shooter. Absolutely none.
That's 1.2 people per jury who even when presented with a shooter would say they bear no responsibility for the death.
Except prosecutors are good at sussing out people with a moral compass and kicking them off the jury.
Any time you have any hope of any kind, remember that just as the health care system has nothing to do with caring, the justice system has nothing to do with justice.
The ideal outcome from this would be comprehensive health care reform in the US, probably including single-payer health care for all Americans. Neither major party will support it and even though a majority of Americans support it, they don't know how to use the democratic system to get it. All of the republican party and 75 percent of Democrats will take health industry money to preserve the status quo. The few progressive Democrats who actually attempt to take this on will have to fight most of their own party, and they can never win that way. Americans are also rather easily distracted.
Unfortunately the most likely outcome of this whole thing is, within a small margin of error, nothing.

Agree politically but disagree when it comes to stochastic terrorism. The people are fed up and the government has been out to brunch for decades.
Remember remember!
The 4th of December
A CEO dies all alone;
On the street he was lain,
cold, pale and in pain,
thousands of deaths that he own.
The decisions he'd struck,
Layers removed from the slaughter,
Were a shareholder's treat,
Your dead mother or daughter.
Those investors all wait, on that cold winter morn,
Still unawares of profit potential they'd mourn,
Poking at hotel breakfast, bored looks on their face
As was Brian's when he denied and delayed at great pace
Endless growth, deposed, on behalf of us all
Luigi didn't do it, we were hiking in Nepal.
You needed to conduct a survey to figure this out?
Better to have receipts than none, yea?
I assume the other 3 are in elementary school and don't understand the concepts yet?
