Blue shield policy on anesthesia was changed the day after the assassination.

Policies have been changed and no pie was involved

You have no idea whether or not it was the assassination that changed that policy and I continue to maintain that you cannot solve a systemic problem with vigilantism.

How many CEO assassinations do you think it will take for the fully Republican-controlled legislative, executive and judicial branch to socialize the U.S. for-profit medical industry? You don’t need to give me an exact number, just an estimate.

When Shinzo Abe was assassinated, most of Tetsuya Yamagami’s concerns were directly addressed in policy, including the dissolution of the church he was protesting.

You’re living in a pipe dream if you think that a fascist oligarchy gives a shit about anything but making money.

And yet you cannot disprove a direct correlation between the two events, so, until we won’t have a bigger dataset to analyse, both our opinions are equally valid; even if a policy change in the time span of a day and against the economic interests of this institution would skewer the hypothesis towards my interpretation rather than yours, but I want to give you the benefit of the doubt. Hopefully we’ll have this increased dataset available in a short time ;)

To answer your question: more or less all of them. Or at least a great majority (70-80% at least), all of the people who you cited in your list are out for blood against the lower classes so I don’t see anything wrong in defending ourselves from these beasts.

They’ll have to be successful 100% of the times to avoid being killed, we will need just one successful try to reach our goal

Only one way to find out. (Clearly I mean by recruiting the owl from the tootsie pop commercial to give us a number. I do suspect it will be greater than three, however.)

That’s not an answer.

Or are you admitting you can’t CEO assassinate your way out of a capitalist healthcare system under a fascist government?
