With all these dirt bags taking down their leadership lists, surely an archive doesn't exist somewhere.

Another reason for archive sites to be attacked sadly.

Medical care in Canada is completely separate from medications. No one is being put down because someone "doesn't want" to give them insulin. If you're going to have an opinion at least do some research and don't be a total retard.

What if they just want a ramp built on their house?

While I don't condone the assassination, I regret to inform everyone that the narrative has officialy turned. X is boosting accounts saying they need to find the guy, and I can't help but notice that the messages laughing about this insane shit are all gone from the feed.

Sounds like Elon is terrified he's next. Couldn't happen to a nicer bloke. honestly.

This made me check mine and I got fan art, and nothing is gone yet.

He apparently only pulled down the mask because the woman at the hostel checking him in requested he do so. Masks are favored among thieving druggie trash in NYC so I understand why she would ask him to do so while checking his ID, but I bet she feels bad about it now.

Aren't publicly traded companies forced to show who's in charge?

The amputee veteran that wanted financial assistance for a stairlift but Canadian healthcare asked him "have you considered suicide?" is a thing though. They seem to be ghoulishly eager to ask you to stop being a problem and kindly go fucking die.

I have an account for archiving, not following anyone and I don't normally browse. Opened the homepage of Twitter and this came up

So I think the guy you're replying to is just being a dramatic retard.

Canada has perhaps the most uniquely terrible health system in the entire developed world. They took the shitty parts of the US health system, the bureaucratic nightmare parts of a public health system, then sprinkled in just enough globalist progressive bullshit finishing off by flooding it with useless Indians that they got a great big steaming pile of crap.

I don’t think you could come up with a worse system if you actually tried. It’s not really comparable to public health systems in Japan, Norway or whoever you care to mention.

Professional hitman don’t exist. The movie Fargo is the most accurate depiction of “professional hitman” in recent decades.

The level you’re dreaming of only belongs to covert military assassins and even that’s a stretch for most governments. Just look how sloppy Putin is about a murdering his enemies. His goons gave radiation poisoning to entire neighborhoods, bystanders and hotels in London just trying to poison a few defectors. India got booted out of Canada for their retard antics trying to kill a few opponents there.

Professional Hitmen do in fact exist. I've been on scene for some of the handiwork. But they do not operate like Hollywood or the internet imagines. They simply operate in the most straightforward way possible. The New York Mob was incredibly efficient at this for decades. This guy was actually pretty close to their approach. Which is almost always walk up, shoot, calmly walk away before anyone realizes what happened such that you are long gone by the time the screaming starts. Use a weapon that can't be tied to you. Shoot your target and only your target. Be as nondescript as possible. Just be a guy in a coat. This guy screwed up in a few ways. He lurked outside waiting for his victim. He had some very distinct things like that backpack and whatever his Solid Snake pistol was supposed to be.

Go look at /r/salary sometime on reddit and see what anesthesiologists make for knocking people out in the US. They work less than half the year and get paid over $750k.

In Spain and other western Euro countries they make around $200k, in places like Hungary they make about $25k and don't seem to do too much worse than the ones here.

"Doctors should get paid" is fine. "Doctors should be paid nearly a million bucks annually while taking 30 weeks off a year" isn't. They can only do this because the AMA acts like a real guild and deliberately keeps the number of entrants to the field extremely artificially low, to protect wages.

I don't agree with the reddit info, actually knowing anesthesiologists. The anesthesiologist who was there during the surgery in August billed Medicare over $2100, got less than $300. Can remember similar for the other surgeries over the years. And the ones I know work far more than half the year.

You WANT a good anesthesiologist monitoring your shit during surgery. Surgeon has enough to do just fixing your shit. In addition, not all anesthesiologists work in all areas. For example, not all anesthesiologists participate in heart surgery. Some anesthesiologists also do pain management. Whatever these men and women get, they earn.

When your shit is fucked up and you are in agony and/or scared for your life the two people you're gladdest to see are your surgeon and your anesthesiologist. One will put you out and keep you out while the other fixes you up. This is from more than one personal experience.

That was specifically Veteran's Affairs. They've got a long history of treating their veterans like shit. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't even a doctor who suggested that to the woman, if it actually happened.
There's no one going into a doctor's office asking for help getting a chair lift and being asked by their doctor if they'd rather kill themself instead, the program just doesn't work that way. The doctor would have literally nothing to gain by trying to offer suicide in cases where other options made more sense. There's no incentive, and the MAID program requires multiple assessments and wait time over months so if it was a lazy doctor they'd be making more work for themselves when they could just fire the patient. I understand people being concerned the program would be overused, but the nonsense some people come up with is tiresome. Doctors aren't handing out signups for suicide with flu shots.

The most recent batch of updates mention that the dude probably arrived in NYC via Grayhound bus about ten days ago from Atlanta, and used a fake NJ license to check in.

Does anyone else think he looks sort of Latin American? Like white Hispanic from Argentina kind of look.

Tons of crazy people in this thread cheering on the death of this guy for accounting for less than 1% of total medical costs. If you want to know who makes healthcare expensive, look at doctors.

if that were true doctors would not deny life saving medical procedures. you're supposed to lick the CEO's shoes not suck on them

 

[Doctor Ivo Robotnik Sr.]

Hot take I guess, but honestly I feel like this is one of the things that's been sorely missing from modern society. People are too comfortable with trashing someone's life from afar because they don't have to worry about social pressure or consequences.

You can take part in harassing a child that painted his face at an NFL game because you're a thousand miles away and don't have to worry about his father cracking your skull. You can deny someone healthcare without even knowing the name of the person you're sentencing to death or even having to look them in the face. "It's just business."

Sometimes people just need a punch in the face. When it escalates to the point that "sometimes people just need shot" though I don't think it says good things about where society is currently headed.

Pretending this isn't retarded, 1% of doctors would be about 10,000 people. So he got more revenge for his bullet if he killed the dude responsible for even a fraction of a percentage. But it is retarded and people are cheering the death of a dude who championed denying legitimate claims and either bankrupting sick people in court or dragging it out until they fucking die if they try to fight it. Nothing about healthcare costs. If you suck start a shotgun you can keep gargling the CEO's balls in hell though

As a counter point. Just because it is clear that you have no understanding of what goes into the costs and Salaries of healthcare provider's. Anesthesiologists do not make that free and clear. Remember every practicing MD is on some level a business unto themselves. With certain business expenses. The big one that every physician pays individually is Malpractice Insurance. With Anesthesiologists being top of the heap for the cost of such. When you see what any American Doctor makes per year, a minimum of 60% of that number goes to insurance. And anesthesiologists do not "only work half a year". They work twice as much as you or I in that seeming half year they work. 80+ hour weeks are normal. Anesthesiologists main job is to more or less be prepared at any moment to raise the dead. They are your lifeline. If you feel they get paid too much I suggest you champion tort reform that puts a cap on Malpractice payouts like the other Western Euro Countries you mention.

Another example of a doctor that gets grossly slammed by media for their annual earnings, without anybody doing the math. Radiologists. They almost never encounter actual patients (unless they are Interventionists). They spend their days locked in a small black room starring at 4 screens and talking into a microphone. They can easily make $500,000+/year. But their Malpractice Insurance is as bad as anesthesiologists due to the shear volume of patients they read. Depending on what they are reading they can be seeing 100+ Patient X-rays/day. Worse if they are stuck reading routine chest x-rays. For which they get paid $10/patient. Assuming the patient has insurance. And assuming it's not UHC. If its UHC they might see $5 in 18-24 months after they have spent $25 trying to collect from the insurance company.
