Summary
Internet sleuths, who often assist in high-profile investigations, are notably silent on the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Popular figures like TizzyEnt and Savannah Sparks cited disinterest, with some expressing disdain for the U.S. healthcare system, which has faced heightened criticism amid record-low public satisfaction.
Many online users appear apathetic, failing to empathize with the wealthy victim.
The lack of engagement contrasts with past cases like Gabby Petito’s, where online communities played key roles. Meanwhile, the NYPD continues its investigation, releasing surveillance footage and offering a $10,000 reward for tips.
I mean all insurance is a scam but how bad could it be if you had affordable healthcare in the first place?
Thats exactly the flaw in your thoughts, medical prices are pretty well correlated with what the average that folks can afford when insurance isnt a factor I believe its Singapore who has a system like that. The problem accurs with insurance working as an amplifier to a kinda shit system.
Yeah we get charged a huge amount, then the insurance companies pay the hospital some smaller amount after “negotiating”
If you go to the hospital and tell them you’re uninsured, your bill is drastically different from the insured billing. It’s all a fucking racket between for-profit hospitals, drug companies, pharmacies, and insurers.
And now it’s such a big racket that a 1/3rd(?) of our economy is tied up in it. And that also means 1/3rd of our retirement savings is tied to these shitmonster’s stock prices.
