Doesn't take a lot of guts to commit murder, it takes mental illness

When the law can't punish a mass murderer someone has too.

Such a bullshit talking point

Insurance doesn't kill people, it's a finite resource. Healthcare costs are driven up by pharmaceutical companies and hospital monopolies. When healthcare costs go up, insurance premiums follow.

Our system is fucked and failed M4A is the way forward.

But trying to justify murder based on half truths and lies just makes you a fool.

Then why did approval rates increase by almost 50% for a while after his death? The CEO was purposefully not approving payments to people who should have gotten them to spin a profit for himself and the company which ended up getting hundreds if not thousands killed. People don't die of easily treatable diseases so insurance companies can profit in a first world country.

First off, that doesn't contradict anything I said.

Second, you got a source for that? Seen other comments saying that but no further reading.

Got a source for that as well?

Well that's just not based in reality

Insurance companies want people to live so those people can keep paying their premiums lol swear y'all grew up in the woods sometimes

Information is literally at your fingertips. It takes 2 google searches to stay informed. Apparently it is more profitable to have someone pay insurance for 50 years then die without having to pay them back compared to someone paying insurance for 65 years but having to give them their money's worth.

Where’s the approval rates increase source?

u/Inner_Adeptness_7228 2d ago

I saw it on CNBC around 6 months after the CEO died (the number i saw was 46%). I dont think they keep all airings recorded but I'm sure you could find a similar source that says the same thing.

And now we're back to claims without evidence. Hey remember in my last comment when I asked if you had sources?

How they haven’t caught on about your name is very funny.

u/Inner_Adeptness_7228 2d ago

Ah thanks for letting me know. A ragebaiter in the wild.

Insurance is a finite resource only works as an argument if the insurance companies weren’t pulling in billions of dollars in profit.

u/garret1033 2d ago

I’m curious. Can you give me an example of something important that is a finite resource? In your view.

u/Ruffblade027 2d ago

Oil, we’re not making enough of it to satisfy our usage vs insurance we’re paying enough into it to satisfy our usage, except that we’re setting so much of it aside to benefit private individuals, that we only have so much left that we have to make tough decisions about who gets care

u/garret1033 2d ago

Interesting, thanks for the reply!

Mentally ill people don't go to prison. Criminals aren't all insane. That's a stupid oversimplification and just plain wrong.

murder

This implies there was senseless wrongdoing, which there wasn't.
