Many of us don't care about his motives or his reasoning.

We see what Mangione did as a net positive.

Something we are too scared to do, and we know is wrong.

But we are more and more desperate.

That guy and all CEOs like him should be in prison for life.

But, they are rewarded for their mass murder and torture of people instead.

It SHOULDN'T come to this. WHAT is the alternative?

Spend another few decades protesting and voting while they spend hundreds of millions to make it even worse?

Meanwhile we keep suffering and dying because of sociopathic greed.

C,mon, Odin. “That guy” is dead; yet you want him in prison, too? And just how is Thompson’s murder gonna “fix” the system? I’ll wait. But don’t get me wrong, it most definitely needs fixing. I just don’t think murdering CEOs, or anybody else for that matter, is the way to jump start it. This country has plenty of people smart enough to know what should and needs to be done to fix this system. Question is, do we have enough in positions of power with the WILL to do it?

Should be in prison. He might even still be alive if he was in there. For whatever that is worth.

Him getting killed is like a drunk crashing into your house, revealing the mold that has been building up that people have been covering for years hoping it wouldn't get worse.

Now everybody sees it more clearly and wonders why the hell our government is so bought.

Didn't say this would fix anything. I'm saying nothing else does.

Unless there are hundreds of Progressive politicians who can actually win seats who we can pull out of a hat, or something.

And yes, we can hope against hope that Democrats will hear and respond with Medicare for All.
