Oh, I'm sure he won't become a martyr. These idiots are so scared and certain this is the best way forward, they can't imagine the consequences.

    It would be a shame if his execution caused copycats.

    If Americans had the balls to copycat this, they would have done so months ago, healthcare would have been reformed as a result or at least health insurance companies would be unable to find anyone willing to be CEO for them.

    Oh, I’m sure he won’t become a martyr.

    I mean, its not even clear if he was the guy who pulled the trigger. Less a martyr than a scapegoat, as far as we can tell.

    they can’t imagine the consequences.

    The bitter truth is that we've got one dead CEO in 2025 and tens of thousands of dead UHC customers. This is math that the shareholders can live with, so long as it guarantees them continued economic growth into the next decade. CEOs are, after all, a dime a dozen. Hell, we're nearing a point at which they can be replaced with AI.
