So what you’re saying is: open season on health insurance execs unless they make it a policy of paying out 100% of claims?

Yeah. We wanted universal healthcare, and got slightly better coverage, but kept the pre-existing death panels conservatives were so fucking scared of being implemented. You keep people poor, sick, unhealthy and unhappy, don't be fucking surprised when they lash out.

We wanted to improve our station, and someone is going to take it into their own hands, like they did here. I'm not going to say this was right or wrong, but it's far from unexpected.
