Here's the thing about the UHC murder. There will be no changes to our insurance or healthcare system.

20. None of them practically get it

They are mostly fairly well off and or have much better insurance... and they are largely, even many d, BEHOLDEN to the insurance and pharma companies. The insurers etc. like their huge profits, they like to deny as much as possible etc. they like being able to get away with the deaths they directly cause because for the most part no one cares. I call it murder, they know what they are doing. In addition, what they do is fraudulent, denying valid claims when people have paid them vast sums of money for years in many cases. They need to be strictly regulated and all costs need to be controlled.

I know though it will never happen here.

It is not just about huge premium costs, as if that weren't enough, it is about them being able to do whatever they please at any time as well. For instance changing a copay on a med from $25 to $757! And the control of insulin per month cost making insulin no more than $35 per month was not what most think it was, first, it was only for people on medicare, and second, it only covers specific insulins, if you are taking one that is not covered it will still cost a fortune or whatever pharma wants to charge. In addition there are millions on insulin who are not on medicare. It costs very little to make a vial of insulin around $3-6 for novolog.


Mangione's murder of BT shone a spotlight on it briefly for whatever reasons, now it will just go back to the usual again with no one discussing it much if at all.
