      There’s an analogy that Robert Heinlein liked regarding assassination

      It’s like shooting horses that can’t clear a jump until you get one that can

        I don’t want a revolution though

        What kind of thinking is that? Ah yes, let’s start a revolution. Revolutions always have great endings.

  Wait until I tell you about death panels claims adjusters and their body count…

  Less terrifying than normalized murder that executives commit with “just good business”.

  I know it is, but it’s important that people don’t forget about the hundreds of thousands of people murdered by insurance companies denying claims every year.
