Look at all the people who got healthcare that was out if terror

Do you really want to rely on fear to have that happen? Or do you want a system where people wouldn't have to suffer that way?

I'd also like a pet unicorn and that's what I'm working for but the world is what it is

[–] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

In what world is it easier to kill all billionaires than to redistribute the economy? And keep in mind how often this would have to happen for your fear based system to remain in place.

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Wouldn't be fear based if rid of them

[–] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Do you really think people will stop increasing their net worth forever if you kill all current billionaires once?

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Do you really think we should let that happen do you think we shouldn't ever put out fires just because other flammable stuff exists you're really stretching to justify doing nothing

[–] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Making stuff non flammable is a better solution that putting out constant fires

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

So we shouldn't have fire fighters

[–] MyVeryRealName@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Fire fighters aren't a permanent solution to the flammability problem.

[–] youcantreadthis@quokk.au 1 points 3 weeks ago

So we shouldn't have them and also they should all be killed yes I agree

UHC is still denying claims. There was a temporary uptick in approvals until the interim CEO was inevitably replaced by someone who has the "shareholder's priorities" in mind.

The whole system needs to change. Cutting fingers off of the dragon one-by-one is not much of a plan.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

Sounds like to me not enough UHC executives have been killed to make a difference yet.

Okay so building stuff isjy allowed so what needs to be destroyed to save those people
