I am continually shocked by the brutality of the assassination of my fellow citizens by insurance companies, who maximize profit to the detriment of their customers.

Mr. Thompson probably killed thousands during his time as CEO of United Healthcare.

While I'm not in favor of gunfire in the streets, I feel not one iota of sympathy for the dead executive who earned over $10 million a year through systematic murder.
