Corporations are people with universal rights Unlimited dollars is speech All people are equal but some people are more equal than others. The Left bungled their populism by bringing RINOS and neocons (money) on the campaign trail. It didn't help that biden admin staffers were out of touch and out of their own league. Rightwing and center-right press has a lot of work on their hands tablesetting for the new admin because growing wealth inequality is here to stay...
Very rich that you of all people would ask that question to anyone else. You are the absolute king of all 3 of those things.
Yes and the article is conveniently written now - and has the premise that America has lost its moral compass… not the elected officials and people in positions of power. It is a very convenient argument to make as well.
What’s wrong with it? Who said anything was wrong with it- I have said they should track him down. However it isn’t lost on a lot of people (many of them not leftists) that the murder of a CEO got a tremendous amount of attention from the NYPD and other police agencies compared to when poor people or people not part of the power structure are murdered. You likely don’t think of those types of things - but many do. It was one of the first things I heard from clients.. it only reinforces the idea that the police, government and business don’t give a damn about normal people.
It did not matter that the guy was a CEO. He (the shooter) was on camera coldly gunning an innocent man down in the streets of manhattan. You don’t see that from normal people. If he had shot a mattress salesman like that, they still would’ve gone after him just as hard. You can’t cold shoot people in the back, on camera, walking down the street in Manhattan and get away with it. The pressure is on to find that guy no matter who he shot.
If you have a job that offers health insurance - chances are exceedingly high you will not qualify for the subsidies to get that $39 / month plan.

Just not the same. They aren’t talking about it nearly as much on mainstream news. **** google anyway.
The top 25+ countries in the world with the highest life expectancy all of have universal healthcare. The US is literally the only developed nation in the world without universal coverage. You're a self proclaimed well traveled man, does that honestly look like a coherent message to you?
How many died because they were waiting? When you have universal care, and people are getting regular checkups, a lot of people are going to die on waiting lists for diagnostic scans. Here in America you just die because you can't afford the diagnostic scans to begin with. Those of us with a conscious don't believe our lives are more more important simply because we have more money and can afford healthcare.
Man dies of asthma attack after inhaler cost skyrockets to more than $500 United Health Group’s pharmacy benefit manager, Optum Rx, stopped covering Cole Schmidtknecht’s “life-changing” inhaler, suit alleges. February 10, 2025 at 12:20 EST Cole Schmidtknecht expected to pay $66.86 for a three-month supply of his preventative asthma inhalers in January 2024 when he went to his Walgreens pharmacy in Appleton, Wisconsin. The pharmacy allegedly told him his insurance no longer covered the medication, so he would have to pay the full cost. The bill: $539.19, according to a recently filed lawsuit. Schmidtknecht, 22, couldn’t afford that, and so for the next five days, he struggled to breathe with only an emergency asthma inhaler, the suit states. Then, on Jan. 15, he had a severe asthma attack. Within minutes, he was brain-dead. Six days later, his parents took him off life support. Now, Bil and Shanon Schmidtknecht, both 47, have filed a wrongful death and negligence lawsuit against the pharmacy and pharmacy benefit manager that had been supplying their son with his asthma medication. In a 26-page complaint filed on Jan. 21 in the U.S. District Court for Eastern Wisconsin, the Schmidtknechts accuse Optum Rx — a subsidiary of United Health Group and one of the country’s three largest pharmacy benefit managers — of illegally denying Cole his “lifesaving” inhaler, forcing him to unexpectedly bear the full cost of the medication, said the Schmidtknechts’ lawyer, Michael Trunk. They allege that the Walgreens pharmacy in Appleton failed to inform him or his doctor of alternative medications. “We want to get justice for our son,” Bil told The Washington Post, “and want to make sure it does not happen to someone else.” Continued...
It's almost like murdering a businessman in cold blood had no salutary effect on health care coverage or costs.
