(35,007 posts)When you have a system like capitalism in which the goal is to always strive for the top (while being rewarded by stepping on others to get there), there is going to be a lot of collateral damage so to speak. Most of the time that damage is on the lower end of the scale (the poor) - this time people are freakout out because one of the leaders was taken out.
Maybe he was doing his best within a very flawed system, I can believe that. It doesn't change how many people died indirectly as a result of his policies etc. People were passing around other names of health care executives on social media yesterday. So, public at large is pretty angry about how they are being treated - at least by this particular industry.
Eventually they will figure out it's the system that is the real problem as opposed to individual actors.
