Not to derail, but...Was there ever a motive released in the RJR trial or was that swept under the rug as well? Just a random slaying so they claim? I ai'nt buying it.
Heard the RJR murders were part of a huge drug ring?????

Not sure of the authenticity since the left leaning media is near the bottom with any type of credibility, pres trump needs to reinstate the Smith-Mundt act to bring back news with some integrity

I understand the frustration and anger folks have against the system and leaders. But celebrating his death seems like third world country level stuff. Holding one guy as responsible is ludicrous. Our politicians and every lobbyist out there are just as responsible as him. The fact we’re the best country in the world yet have a totally corrupt healthcare system is the product of many levels of greed. Killing this guy only took a dad from his kids. The healthcare world won’t change. The lack of general empathy from masses of the public is concerning to me. Our country should be better than this.

Exactly right, taking a mans life is not going to change a damn thing in the health care industry. The system is completely broken, and I in my days left will never see a change with the greed that is out there.

Every insurance claim denied that resulted in a life ended potentially took a dad from his kids, or a son from his parents. It goes both ways.

I think empathy in the US has degraded since shootings on TV became mainstream. Bunch of elementary kids die from some wacko with a gun? Meh. It'll happen again in a month. At least it wasn't my kids' school...

Face it: We're all tone deaf. If 9/11 happened today, we'd shrug our shoulders and see what's streaming on Netflix.

I seriously wonder how much of that actually happens. Is there some data to support those claims?

I'd think by far the most claims denied are for non-critical medical care. I'm sure there are cases of it but I'd think it's not as common as some suggest.

But as a country, we can’t use the mentality of shooting the leader of X to solve a problem. The problem isn’t the CEO, it’s the system. Are all the shareholders just as responsible? How many people have mutual funds or ETF’s with their stock and don’t know it? People are acting like the head got cut off the dragon, but in reality a hair got pulled out of his ass. He’s still a dragon and nothing is going to change. Costs will go up because now they’re providing security for people. Lose lose.

Incorrect...a cardiologist medical director with an insurance company can deny your claim or pre auth for a gastric issue. Something that had absolutely nothing to do with his/her specialty. The insurance company will justify it with a coverage policy buliten. Then if you appeal with actual medical info they stick to therr guns with the coverage policy buletin as cardiologist knows nothing avout the actual condition..they just refer back to the cpb
