      I’m not hopeful it will, especially since the U.S. has already gone back to killing children instead.

      Well, something isn’t going to stop burning. Remember, when Brian Robert Thompson hit the pavement, he didn’t stop falling. He fell, and fell, and fell, right into the gaping maw of the Pit of Hell itself.

      The man died utterly unrepentant for mass murder. On the morning of his death, he was on his way to a conference, a conference where he planned to openly celebrate the record profits he earned from all the people he killed.

      If that isn’t enough to Damn a soul for all eternity, I don’t know what is.

      I can’t speak for everyone. All I know is that every time I notice the deduction in my paycheck that’s going toward my health insurance, I’ll be thinking of this. Same with when I have to pay a co-pay despite having said-insurance. Or when I get a text from the urgent care, months after my visit, telling me I still have “a balance” to resolve…

      Really, there is no shortage of reminders for many of us. As long as the system keeps squeezing us, we will have plenty of reminders.

        Quest diagnostics wouldn’t let my phlebotomist do the digital part of my bloodwork until I paid my debt to them. She tried everything, and their software locked her out. She was getting quietly furious as she messed with her computer while apologizing to me.

        I’ll be thinking about that everytime I need healthcare.

        Oh and just so everyone knows, Quest Diagnostics has been in federal court for Medicaid fraud several times and yet their allowed to keep operating. But its definitely “unnecessary care” driving up healthcare costs

      Mainstream media will try to move it to the next news cycle to be forgotten. We will keep the flame lit ourselves.
