  1. So as your medical bills continue to rise do you shoot the next CEO and the next and the next? Maybe the Chump regime should reconsider defunding education for their own safety.

  2. I guess his chest wasn’t….covered.

    See you at the crossroads, ghoul.

  3. The sentiment I keep seeing is people are amazed this isn’t happening more frequently

  4. CEOs will continue to fuck over consumers for profit … now they’ll just have 24/7 security paid for as part of their compensation package. Yay captialism!

  5. I’m not happy to see anyone be assassinated, but I’ll be darned. Who would have guessed a guy running an insurance behemoth would look *just like that*, quarter zip and all.

  6. This is a good thing and should come with the job description.

  7. Can somebody estimate the number of people who died because of his policies?

  8. Someone in another thread called being a CEO a pre-existing condition; and denied his claim.

  9. I read on a other thread he was being investigated for insider trading after dumping a bunch of stock right before it plummeted. Nothing to base this off of but maybe he was about to roll on someone and they couldn’t have that

  10. I don’t care. Down vote me to hell. We’ve got to stop praising the death of this guy. In fact we need to stop demonizing people that work at these insurance companies. Yes private health insurance is garbage. It’s horrible they profit off people’s health. It’s horrible they deny claims. But you know what, they only exist because the U.S. government does not provide a public option let alone cover all it’s citizens.

    Private health insurance is the only game in town. They only exist because we have voted in people that have ensured that there is no public insurance. Also, the hospitals are the ones charging extortionist rates. Not the insurance companies. I get people are mad. But get mad at the right people.

    I’m sure this CEO is no saint. I’m sure United Healthcare has plenty of lobbyist. But private health insurance is a necessary evil until we vote for Universal Healthcare. We don’t need to party on the man’s grave.

  11. If only my empathy weren’t facilitated by an out of network provider.

  12. I’m going to watch Falling Down this evening while cleaning my guns

  13. Lotsa people not getting insurance and premiums being so high this is sad but not entirely shocking. Health care is a right not a privilege.

  14. This needs to be a trend! Out with the greedy CEOs!!
