In the past few weeks, one thing has become crystal clear in America: The public outrage after the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson exposed a seething fury over the health insurance racket. No amount of media finger-wagging at public perversity or partisan attempts to frame Luigi Mangione’s act as a statement from the left or right can hide the reality: The people, from all sides, are livid about the healthcare system—and with good reason.

      May make some feel better but burning it down means fewer drugs in drugstores, a further breakdown in health care, little infant formula to be found in stores, spotty electrical supply and hundreds of other things.

      And no guarantee things would work, or be better, later.

      That is assuming Americans have the capacity to burn anything down other than their couches

        I said burn it down, not slightly burn the corners. Burn it down implies nothing left.

        Destroy it all.
