    They are deluded. They still think about the American dream as if it wasn’t a nightmare. Yeah, leave all your people behind, let them die or rot in poverty, as long as you make it.

      Imagine you can extract 100k in premiums over lifetime of the slave?

      Then at year 20 he get cancer… Now if you pay, it will cost 1m aka his premium plus 9 other slaves who won’t get cancer…

      So why would you deny and book all that sweet cheese.

      Nothing will change until parasites are removed from profit seeking positions and health care system is reformed to do this.

      If more dead CEOs are needed, well we got people doing school shootings so hopefully they update targeting algos.

      Boardrooms, not classrooms.

      This fight will take a generation. Owners are already turning narratige. Left and right politics clowns are starting to derail discussions.
