Following the shooting of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, multiple major health insurance companies have taken their executive leadership pages offline.
UHC, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Caresource and more are removing or redirecting their about us pages.
No, and I never said that. But thinking that you can run a big business and nobody would be “kill you” mad at you is very optimistic. People can be incredibly irrational, and the more customers you have the higher the odds of a crazy. And you only need one crazy to get lucky.
If I was a CEO of a big company, I’d want some security 24/7, even if I made Saint Gaben look horrible in comparison, because you never know when some certifiable in Bumfuckistan decides I’ve destroyed his peepee with mind rays or something, and decides the only logical thing is to kill me.
However, with this guy everyone wants him dead, and I really hope some of the chucklefucks running such companies start thinking if that really is the legacy they want to leave behind.
It’s really not that hard to run an insurance company without making people want to murder you
Don’t forget that that a CEO legally has to maximize profits. Otherwise the shareholders can sue.
Edit: apparently this is incorrect. It is what they’re hired to do though, so not a big difference.
Yea dummy… that is the “reality” we want changed.
To you it’s immutable, to us it’s not.
The economy isn’t driven by the laws of the universe, it’s people, we can change it any time and have chosen not to. So now CEOs are dying.
Wanna change it now? No?
Alright cool. Maybe this is the new normal then.
People have a limit.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say
That depends on the corporate charter.
While I think these are scum, people want to murder people over too little cheese on their burger.
OK, but do do you think this particular case is similar to “too little cheese on a burger”?
