Dealing with health insurance and disability insurance has made me sincerely wonder how people don't target insurance offices with violence. I'm surprised this is the first time something like this has happened. The average person is treated as completely disposable. No more money in the bank? No ability to work for somebody else's profit? No value to you.

We don't really know what "this" is yet.

Most probably it was internal, for money only?

it was about as internal as those bullets are in his chest.

I bet it was someone who lost or is losing a family member because this company refused care.

or perhaps it was someone who was refused treatment of their mental illness.

ironic really

There had to be some kind of intel for the shooter to find the guy. If it was this easy to hunt CEOs there’d be a lot more people bagging them.

I vote for open season on health insurance CEOs. Seems like an efficient crowd sourced way to drain the swamp.

This could be the opening shot on CEO season.

That's what I mean, we don't know. Could be a lot of things. Seems premeditated, like he was specifically targeted, so it doesn't seem like a random crazy person or a mugging, but other than that, we don't have any idea why he was killed or who the murderer is.

I wouldn't be so sure...
