Well his heart was in the right.... spot. Wait! What?
He'll serve as a learning experience for others perhaps.
My bet is the learning experience will go as far as security details for all CEOs of healthcare companies, at enormous expense.
I don't wonder who's going to pay for it all.
Great timing for Pro Publica to put this piece out - long but outstanding read. A horrific story of where for-profit healthcare goes:

(Also forms an excellent point of evidence as to why the Fourth Estate matters.)

No question about that I'm afraid. Those who can afford health care insurance will pay for it. Just like always.

Agreed on all points.

Must admit ignorance on this point. I'll have to do some homework and get back to you.
ETA: Oh. How dense of me. Well, yes. Agreed. Without the press to relate these things, they wouldn't make a difference as they'd be outside of the collective public mind. Such as it is.

It looks to me that he wanted to be caught.
Interesting divide happening between the jillions of people revering him as a hero and the rest.

Glad I signed up for original Medicare and not Medicare Advantage. Though Medicare Advantage plans are basically free instead of the $174 monthly of original Medicare, they'll fuck with you same as any other cheap health insurance.

Seen elsewhere on the internet:
"We're not sending Canada our best.
Naturally, they should build a wall along their southern border, with barbed wire and a moat filled with polar bears.
And we should pay for it."

No need for a wall, just put up signs along the border:
Welcome! You are entering the Socialist nation of Canada, please enjoy your stay!
Not one Republican would cross that.
