boo hoo, the guy that set policies that killed their own customers when they became inconvenient to their bottom line, solely to increase their private profit, had 2 kids. Those kids will still go to fancy private schools and be materially fine, arguably with one less antisocial influence.

How many parents of kids without such blood soaked trust funds did he kill with United Healthcare's policies designed to deny necessary care solely to boost private profits?

We don't even get to vote on this being allowed, the last President that promised to fix this system instituted a plan that instead of removing the profit motive from Healthcare doubled down and further enshrined for profit insurer middlemen predators like United Healthcare.

I know people like you. People that believe if we just play by the rules, protest in designated protest zones pathetically outside the eyeline and profit operations of those being protested, vote for either of our bought and paid for parties that defend this economy from the society it perversely controls, then a just world will just emerge. It won't. Not unless we fight for it. And I'm not using fight as a metaphor, because those that seek power over the masses never surrender their power by anything but force or the real threat thereof.

But maybe we should just exercise more temperance as you say, let them completely destroy Earth's climate for humans first while we ask them really nicely not to. Wow.

Oh, also, bye. Maybe reddit would be a good fit for you.
