I can't help but think they're just making it worse.

    Right. The only thing wrong with this murder is that it is so rare.

    It's especially true because it was actually very effective, at least temporarily. The Corporate Serial Killer's company eased up on their rejections for a while, and so did every other health care company.

    This is nothing less than the Free Market at work, doing what it is supposed to do. The Corporate Serial Killer took his sociopathic policies too far, and provoked a response from the market in an attempt to correct the issue. The elimination of the Corporate Serial Killer caused the company to adjust its policies so they didn't provoke such a strong response, and other companies in the sector (and possibly other sectors as well) noticed it, and adjusted their policies as a result.

    Conservatives should be celebrating this event. This is the Free Market at work, which is the literal religion of conservatives. This is EXACTLY what they claim they want the markets to do.

    Of course, they don't really want the "Free Market" to be truly Free. They just want it rigged in their favor.
