Country wide outage at the corruption involved with the health insurance
Health insurance industry: we can make it worse
outrage*
Also, not an insurance company. He worked for Pfizer.
Pfizer is a med company. They negotiate with insurance. They work together to fuck us over.
It’s a pharmaceutical company. They’re no saints, but it’s disingenuous to compare them to people who take money and provide nothing but a rubber stamp.
Did everyone forget about scumbag Martin Shkreli who raised medication prices for no reason other than he wanted more money?
“In September 2015, Shkreli was widely criticized when Turing obtained the manufacturing license for the antiparasitic drug Daraprim and raised its price to insurance companies from $13.50 to $750.00 (USD) per pill.”
Martin worked at Retrophin and Turing Pharmaceuticals but mostly he was a hedge fund manager.
Got nothing to do with Parker or Mangione.
It’s called an example of behavior.
Its a very common thing that happens in human conversation.
Alright well in that case all non-alcoholics and painters are literally Hitler.
people who take money and provide nothing but a rubber stamp
They don’t even do that. Their incentive is to deny coverage. They’re not healthcare insurance companies, they’re healthcare rationing companies. And we pay them.
I knew they were going to try him in a kangaroo court, I just didn’t think they’d be this obvious about it.
A certain fair and unbiased trial he’s getting…/s
That was the magistrate. Whether the trial will be biased is something we don’t know yet.
There were 24,849 homicides in 2022.
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm
Almost none of them, if any, likely required a nationwide manhunt.
Not one of them required an escort of 30 police officers plus a helicopter to the courtroom.
As far as I can tell, none of them were charged with terrorism.
And now he’s getting as biased a judge as he could possibly get.
If we’re going to start charging murderers with terrorism, let’s start with the cops.
Rich people being shot means nature is healing ❤️
“conflict of interest” was old speak from the dark ages.
We are in the second Gilded Age
I would think it might be excusable if this were a straight-up murder charge, which is mostly facts and evidence based. However, if they’re charging him with terrorism, which is much more subjective, doesn’t that make this a serious conflict of interest?
No. It’s inexcusable. Even if he pooped on her lawn she should have no right to be legally judging him.
Can’t help but be biased here. The facts fit too well. Remember, bias has to do with the perception of poor judgment. We don’t need to gamble on it.
you people clearly don’t know what you are talking about. “conflict of interest” only happens if it conflicts the interests of billionaires
Yikes. Incredibly messed up.
This motherfucker was chosen specifically because of his racist and homophobic bias. Endorsing him is endorsing his prejudices.
Go on, you pieces or shit. Defend this horrifying bastard. It just places you on the same disgusting level as him.
She.
Give them a break. They only saw the headline and the picture of a man before commenting.
I did. I saw that they hadn’t read the article and simply corrected them.
America can you not be corrupt for one single moment please
Nope. the days of pretending are over. Now its the days of gangsters with “fuck you money” ruling the country, and everyone else being told to deal with it. Basically Russia in the 1990s as everything is robbed and pilfered by private interests
That only happens if they’re not stopped.
Well, they control the media, they monitor the tools we use to communicate with each other online. they spy on us. Most of the governments are subservient to them. And the few times someone actually does get through to burn something or someone, they pull out all the stops, and charge them with terrorism.
seems to me that the “world elites” already won the game.
Justice for Luigi is going to sail away with Judge parker at the helm.
Maybe this is a good thing? I’m not super familiar with american justice system but isn’t his case is mostly betting on jury acquitting or using jury nullification or at least taking him to strong settlement? Having a judge like this would definitely sway the jury in Luigi’s favor.
wow
Say what you can about communism, but you clearly see that capitalism is so much worse.
lol and I say this as someone who grew up in Soviet occupied eastern europe. Trust me, there are very few systems worse than communism, well at least, that version of it.
Free medicine is nice, though. Not very high quality sometimes, but still better, than bankruptcy after ambulance ride.
Free high school education is a good option too.
Will you develop medicine for free? Will you do 8+ hour long surgeries for free? Will you teach children at school for free?
Nothing is free, buddy. If sth appears to be free, it’s only because someone sponsors it.
Okay, move to Cuba or North Korea where they still try to pursue communism and where they still have not realized how broken system it is. You will surely enjoy life there :D
This should be an automatic forced recusal.
But it wont be, because the billionaires and CEOs are scared, and don’t care about the appearance of propriety. They want Luigi sacrificed on an altar to instill fear and intimidation into those that might follow his example.
Definitely good reason to get them swapped out for a different judge but are they going to oversee the whole trial or just the pretrial?
Also, they were an executive at Pfizer, not an insurance firm.
Yes, you’re right, Pfizer has absolutely no relationship with the insurance companies.
We’re idiots guys, let’s pack it up and move on!
I said it was a good enough reason for them to recuse themself.
