This really sums up the ridiculousness of this whole charade. The system is shit because every member of it buries his head in the sand and yells how the system is intrinsically evil and so he has no responsibility. People would literally execute a person than even consider changing the system from within. The only conclusion is that a group of such people deserves the systems they enable.
If even the CEO couldn't change shit so why murder him?
I was just following orders while I was stationed at Auschwitz, Im innocent here! I was just following orders when I rounded up all those random people to be sent to the gulag, I'm innocent here! I was just following orders when I executed all those civilians that we lined up against the side of a church, im innocent here! I gave the orders but if I didn't high command would have just sent someone else to do it, im innocent here!
Except with UHC and the rest of the US health insurance industry the situation was far worse. Yes when it comes to horrific atrocities committed during war or by totalitarian governments there are plenty of fanatics and psychopaths who take great pleasure in the crimes they are committing, but many soldiers who conduct these crimes are conscripts or deluded young men who didn't sign on for this shit, when ordered to do so an SS officer or a NKVD spook has a luger to his head or the clear and present threat that disobedience will get himself in the gulag.
If you have seen the testimonials of low office drones in many of these health insurance companies many of them have clear revulsion and regret of their time at these companies for what they were doing. The people running the show at these places would have to be the most vile subhumans to exist to willingly compete and rise to the top at these hellholes, anyone with a conscious who wants to reform and isn't the incarnation of evil will be recognized as a threat by their fellow bigwhigs bottom line and so will be kept out of any position where change can be enacted, even if you defeat that there is the shareholders as the next unbeatable challenge.
The difference between the Auschwitz guards and these corporate bigwhigs? Refuse orders and you end up against the wall next. Grow a conscious and you risk losing your job which if you were important at a health insurance corporation in assuming your resume is beefy enough to get another important corporate job in another sector without much effort, I'm going to say that a paycut is not worth as much as your soul for a normal person, the aforementioned low office drones with how things are now likely dont have much of a choice between homelessness or their job. The people in power here don't have any interest in fixing the problem as they are making too much money.
The entire point people are lionizing Luigi is because everyone and their mother has a beef with the health insurance industry. How many generations at this point has the problem only gotten worse with politicians being too content to take their legal bribes to only continue their apathy at best or at worst rig the law in favour of their benefactors? Overwhelming calls met with silence, I ask anyone for a solution to reform healthcare in this country, a solution that works because it seems every option has failed to bear fruit due to the corruption of this country. It feels like the only hope to get results is domestic heroism which by the response by the optimates has clearly been fear. They know what they have done and that it can be fixed but they won't without encouragement.
