Politics Please say rock bottom is getting close

Other people get killed. No nationwide manhunt for suspect. All animals are equal but some are more equal than others. (Orwell)

 

I’m sorry, I’m not calling this guy The Adjuster… just, god what a cringe name.

 

Imagine if Democrats would stop trying to restrict rights or attack anybody and just fully break from the health insurance industry...

Universal healthcare would almost certainly improve nearly every problem we have in this country.

Then universal education (including college and vocational school).

Then restrict real estate ownership to US citizens and immigrants who live here (and you need to become a citizen to own more than one property).

 

Looks like they got the dude...

 

Luigi Mangione.

26 year old Ivy League student.

I guess he has wrote a lot being critical of the insurance industry.

 

Article I read says he held resentment for the medical industry for mistreatment of a sick loved one.

 

They caught the guy pretty close to where I live.

 

They sure caught a guy all right

 

From privileged background. Surprised no one in family recognized him.

Not immigrant and not transgender.

 

So this might actually be the guy, then...

 

Apparently but innocent until proven guilty.

 

Suspect's family is super wealthy and super conservative. He attended very exclusive private school. Family owns two country clubs. They purchased a radio station that had a soft rock format and changed it to wall to wall right wing talk shows.

No wonder he's fucking crazy.

 

Republican congressman Alford said he wants to cut social security and Medicare because that's what Elon Musk wants.
Starve old people to make billionaires happy.

 

Jesse Waters said the suspect is "soft" and hopes he gets what he deserves in prison, presumably rape or murder.
He another rightists celebrated acquittal of Daniel Penny, who killed a Black homeless man. Celebrated acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse, who crossed state lines with illegally purchased guns and shot three people, killing two. Celebrated acquittal of George Zimmerman, who killed Trayvon Martin for the crime of buying candy and soft drink in wrong neighborhood.

The trick they’re pulling here is holding everyone’s health hostage and daring democrats to defend trans people at the cost of everyone’s health needs.
