That's all well and good, but don't just sit back and hope that healthcare magically improves, or that other healthcare CEO's start getting their life claims denied.

Take the current well of anger, and point it towards politicians that will actually fight for free healthcare. It's not only a public health emergency, but also a "crime" emergency, and one of safety.

It's easy to sit behind a keyboard and laugh. It's slightly harder to sit behind a keyboard and email your local reps. It's again slightly harder to rally at your local reps office hours or town halls for free healthcare.

Neither adventurism nor reformism works, what does work is revolution, which requires organization.

Nah let's shoot more CEOs. Let's frighten the fuck out of executives until they bend to our wills.

And how will that help those that are struggling with healthcare costs? Frankly, I'm shocked it's taken this long for America to shoot the shit out of these cunts, but you've shot one dude - and a new CEO is probably rubbing their hands with glee with replacing them and getting that big fat bonus.

Make the change that will help people, rather than the one that satisfies your exec-level death kink.

That won't really work. They'll surround themselves with private security, stop going to public places, and if things get bad enough pass gun control laws to disarm the proles.

Random acts of violence will never bend them to our wills. We need to be organized.

You are absolutely right, random acts of violence will result in more problems. That's why: "You know, if you had one day, like one real rough, nasty day, one rough hour, and I mean real rough, the word will get out and it will end immediately. End immediately. You know, it'll end immediately."
