  4. Let’s take their keyboard’s, only send handwritten bills please.

  5. Cuts down on their profits … disgraceful! Soon, only elites will have Healthcare…

  6. What would happen to insurance companies if say 90% of people just cancelled their coverage and used Kickstarter or gofundme to support each others medical bills. I mean like zero premiums being paid to insurance companies over the course of a year. I wonder what their business model would be?

    I mean seeing that they don’t cover anything under 10k anyway, and most medical bills are on average 7k, and the average 50+y.o. person pays 1000$ a month for coverage… You’d actually be saving money paying out of pocket.

    Edit: this is literally the most maliciously compliant plan I can think of to fuck over insurance. Everyone just cancel your coverage. No profits means makes feduciary responsibility hard. N

  7. Take their limbs and transplant them onto deserving folks.

  8. I pray they get cancer. Not just any cancer but the worst head, neck and genital cancer imaginable. So fucking tired of this.

  14. The goal of capitalism is to have a vast, powerless, subservient class that labors nearly their entire lives. This class has no value to the system as soon as it cannot provide maximum labor value for the capitalists. 

    Capitalism reduces humans to meat machines that only exist to provide the means for the capitalist’s leisure. 

    This is the most inhumane structure ever created. It masquerades and propagandizes as a benefit to society, that other forms of resource distribution are evil, because like as has been said, it projects what it will do by accusing everything else. 

    Since its inception, it has been little else but monarchy without the birthright requirement. It was devised by the scheming merchant class to rise to the power of royalty and destroy all dissent. 

    It is inefficient, wasteful, destructive, murderous, war mongering, and destroying the planet. Our only home. 

    It is the singular force that holds us back and will lead to our extinction if it persists.
