Ticker reminds us that the health-insurance industry has a crap-ton of skeletons (real ones) in its closet. This follows the assassination of a health-insurance CEO and the gleeful reactions of many people and pundits to the murder.
Why are such reactions present?
...You mean like paying hospitals bounties for procedures that we knew were worthless? Remdesivir, ventilators, and bonuses for ICU admission and death. There was no bonus paid if you got up out of the bed and walked out of the hospital under your own power after having shown up with Covid; the more-severe you got nailed the more money they made including a special bonus if you got a toe tag! You pay people for dead bodies you're going to get a lot of them -- and we did, about a million to be exact....
...Why am I supposed to give a shit if anyone associated with an "industry" that got paid for a million deaths with the highest bonuses being for bodies and zero bonus if you survived their "treatment" gets whacked? I'm supposed to cry when someone who had a part in that gets murdered?...
Much as we have an urge to deal with Fauci, Birx, and hospital executives in the very same manner, it's still not the right thing to do. Period.
But a few hundred criminal trials with death-penalty outcomes, followed by civil damages suits, would be fine.
In fact, they're overdue.
Maybe monetary incentives should be given anytime someone is cured instead. Oh wait, then Big Pharma would go bankrupt. Nah, let's stick with sick and dying of our human race for the evil overloards.
