Comment on Torrent of Hate for Health Insurance Industry Follows C.E.O.’s Killing

Here’s the thing. The French and Russian governments were unprepared for massive civil unrest.

Here in America we have companies like Blackwater [or whatever they are calling themselves this week] Staffed by ex-CIA hotshots with access to a massive data base and lots and lots of money.

I’d bet anything that they are already planning to capitalize onthis attack.

I’d bet anything that they are already planning to capitalize on this attack.

My guess is they’re currently consulting their legal teams and politicians, trying to figure out how to get the public to pay for their own private Secret Service for corporate executives.

  I have another comment in this thread. I said that 9/11 gave us the Patriot Act and that this attack will probably lead to something worse.

    Right. The legal teams employed by these bastards are the ones who write our laws, our legislators just sign them.

    Which is why people need to vote in every election.
    
    AOC and Omar didn’t magically appear. They did old fashioned political work.

This whole story-arc gives first move advantage to the opposition, the oligarchs are being forced to react instead of execute plans as they wish

  No.
  
  This is a blip on the radar. Gamestop didn’t destroy the stock markets and this isn’t going to do anything but get people riled up.
  
  9/11/2001 gave us the Patriot Act. You can bet that Trump will push through a law letting any CEOs body guards shoot at will.

Some of us have nothing left to lose. Fuck the private military contractors. Guns and drones are the great equalizer. They’ve waged war on us for decades it’s about time we fight back.
