Freedom From Fear

Freedom From Want

Now give us your nuanced take on Daniel Penny.

Put him in a US military uniform, send him overseas to kill innocent people to serve the needs of our corrupt government and you can't stop kissing his ass and calling him a hero.

"So it's the, it's the ballot or the bullet. Today, our people can see that we're faced with a government conspiracy. This government has failed us. The senators who are filibustering concerning your and my rights, that's the government." - Malcolm X

People in power have two options: fix the system or brace for more violence.

I never said it was, but asked you to consider that our health care system is also "cold blooded killing" about 110 Americans every single day, as surely as if they shot them in the back...except they allowed them to suffer first.

Lololololol 😂🤣😂

Correction: ... Neely's murderer to kill again...

I agree. A crime is a crime. I will point out that Luigi is not an undocumented immigrant. FYI.

So true

You bet. Adam has a defined pension paid by US taxpayers (most of whom don't and never will) and much better health-care coverage than 98% of regular Americans.

And he gets free healthcare.

He's personally affected by rich and powerful people getting offed by the people they've fucked over.

And you’re a loser.

True - and yet….. our healthcare insurance co. & big pharma are cold blooded killers too - responsible for far more death than Luigi. He knew he was sacrificing his own life, trying to bring this issue to light. Our government has done absolutely nothing to fix it. It’s reached despairing levels.

Hey Adam, do you shed tears for murdered human traffickers? Do you shed tears for murdered fentanyl traffickers? Just curious how far your moral outrage over ‘cold blooded murder’ extends… This privileged white man is no different from a human trafficker: they both profit from human suffering.

Says the man who voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which will strip coverage from millions of Americans. You have no room to talk about murder. At least Luigi was man enough to do it himself instead of by fiat.

Unfortunately one will replace him. However, it's causing insurance companies to rethink some policies. BCBS walked back their new policy for anesthesia. I'll take that as a win. A small one, but a win no less.

I agree with you. This young man threw his life away and for what? The gop and the insurance lobby will never allow changes to the insurance industry. The chatter will stop eventually and the insurance industry will go on collecting its massive profits.

It’s not just healthcare. It’s the elite corporations that raise prices on groceries higher than they need to be and other elite that just ran us through the coals. #ClassWar

They should be but at the same time the man was murdered in cold blood! So what you all are saying it’s ok to kill him! How would you feel if if it was someone you love?

Yes held accountable is jail or fines not murder

They are insulated from liability which is a huge part of the problem and why they get away with it. They don’t say they are denying, they say they just aren’t approving and MD’s can appeal the decision but many MD’s don’t have the time or resources to go through multiple levels of appeal.

Good point

The government can become the board of directors and run the industry seized but no dividends would be paid out until the matter is settled in a court of law. The company would not be able to use seized assets to pay for lawyers. Just thinking.

No , sometimes the enemy of your enemy is not your friend . In fact it's rarely true. This guy hates trump , yay , he is against murder yay. But he supports supplying 2000lb unguided bombs dropped on kids and of course the brutal systematic torture. Just don't mess with his shares 😶

How bold of you to say absolutely nothing. Yeah, I know he murdered someone in cold blood... I saw the tape. Yeah, I know he is going to rot in jail forever... that's why I didn't want him to get caught.

Says the guy who just voted to repeal the ACA.

Might want to sit this one out One Adam Twelve.

Fair enough. He still made the world a better place.

People are talking about bringing back the guillotine but are conveniently forgetting the ‘reign of terror’ that followed.

Is Israel state a cold-blooded terrorist state because they like to drop American-made bombs on little children's houses in Gaza? Just wondering.

What should we do with insurance companies that deny life-giving care to the people they insure?

I saw Amazon banned these shirts and I’ve been looking everywhere, in case anyone else has been looking I found this today Not sure how long it’s gonna be up for lol resistthreads.com

Medicare "Advantage" came about because the for-profit middle men ("insurers") saw how successful and efficient Medicare was and lobbied to get a piece of that pie

I'd sell my stock and they should go broke.

Well. There’s one who won’t. So there’s that.

So he should But these are Trumpian times, anarchic conduct can be celebrated, and convictions can be difficult to obtain Will a NY jury convict? I hope so, but don’t ask me to put a $1000 bet on it, given the reactions I’ve read Hatred of insurers is rampant

I suspect he will do time but if there are medical/psych issues, that could mitigate the charges. I’m really struck by the level of anger in the electorate when it comes to corporate greed. Time for the billionaire class to take notice and review the history of the French Revolution.

👍🏾👍👍🏼👍🏽👍🏿👍🏻

Same. I unfollowed already. I have ZERO tolerance for anything right wing, no matter how mild it might be. Adam isn't a RINO... he's a repuke in sheeps clothing.

The mass murder health insurance CEOs need to rot in jail forever, too.

i'm glad he did it.

Now do Brian Thompson and United Healthcare!!

Correct

All insurance companies deny claims. Usually because it was not a covered charge...Or your doctor submitted incorrectly.

If the politicians, the courts provide no relief, than street justice is all that, inevitably, remains.

Sadly, justice seems like such a quaint idea these days.

The social murderers have escaped real justice for too long so we take what we can get

So, Beth, tell me how our justice system handles a billionaire capitalist who has committed many and grievous crimes, exactly? I only ask, as one is currently headed to the white house.

Maybe not; but, at least it throws a spotlight on the crap that we all know is going on

it is bad policy, and dangerous. But if institutions are absolutely unwilling to address the problem, (and they are not), because those whose job it is to fix the problem are corrupt, sooner or later violence becomes the only road to justice.

There are a number of toppled dictators who would agree with you if they were still alive.

Join me in DC in January to demand that Congress renew the ACA subsidies?

yeah it is

You’re a moron

And..UHC will roll merrily on.

Yes, murder.

Both can be true and are.

Damn right!

Well, yeah, obviously federal universal healthcare would be objectively the best decision to make, but I have less than zero faith in the US being able to pass that in the coming decades so might as well just kneecap this one corporation’s ability to profit off of human suffering, if possible

Unfortunately, you’re also misreading the room somewhat-many people don’t think it’s wrong at all & that’s also a problem.

Actually no. My Dad received a bill for 1k - not transported.

Not true. But you can and should always demand a detailed itemized bill for services charged. You will see charges for the lights, siren use, etc...

My insurance was billed for the ride to the ED--FROM THE HOSPITAL.

Back in a day when I had insurance, $400 was billed for an ambulance taking me to an ED one workday. I worked AT A HOSPITAL.

Just terrible. 😢

I'm so sorry to hear that! The previous 8 years of my mom's cancer treatment was a hard lesson in the insanity of the insurance system, even where my dad had "good" insurance.

This you? www.ontheissues.org/IL/Adam_Kinz...

Probably

100% that he would.

Penny, not Perry

I have no doubt that if he could, he would.

For sure... Was a more thought experiment 😊

agree he is a murderer. But it still begs the question: What is it called when an insurance company knowingly denies care that they know, or have been advised by a doctor, is a life saving or life lengthening treatment? Capitalism?

yeah, he will.

Don't advocate prison rape. It's an awful crime even when it happens to somebody you hate.

Wow you're a huge piece of shit huh
