Have people forgotten who prevented people in the US from getting actual healthcare?
I feel like I don't see it brought up enough - it was the healthcare companies and especially the insurance companies who prevented an actual free healthcare system from being implented. That's why the "ACA"/”Obamacare" system was introduced in the first place. A half-measure that barely improved the situation but ultimately meant a lot more money for insurance companies.
They lobbied against any sort of 'single payer' system and have been lobbying against 'medicare for all'. They're the reason why the US is behind every other developed country (and even some developing nations) when it comes to healthcare.
Guys like Brian Thompson didn't just deny people healthcare in a broken system, he actively prevented that system from getting any better.
Maybe people realised this already but I feel this just isn't brought up enough.
This is the primary issue with CEOs and other members of their class. This is why they cannot be reasoned with. At the end of the day they have a vested economic interest in maintaining an exploitative and murderous economic system.

The message was not authentic, with the real Zelenskiy soon denying the claim on his official Telegram channel, but the incident highlighted a major problem: disinformation quickly spreads unchecked on the encrypted app. This ability to mix the public and the private, as well as the ability to use bots to engage with users has proved to be problematic. In early 2021, a database selling phone numbers pulled from Facebook was selling numbers for $20 per lookup. Similarly, security researchers found a network of deepfake bots on the platform that were generating images of people submitted by users to create non-consensual imagery, some of which involved children. At this point, however, Durov had already been working on Telegram with his brother, and further planned a mobile-first social network with an explicit focus on anti-censorship. Later in April, he told TechCrunch that he had left Russia and had “no plans to go back,” saying that the nation was currently “incompatible with internet business at the moment.” He added later that he was looking for a country that matched his libertarian ideals to base his next startup. In view of this, the regulator has cautioned investors not to rely on such investment tips / advice received through social media platforms. It has also said investors should exercise utmost caution while taking investment decisions while dealing in the securities market. On Telegram’s website, it says that Pavel Durov “supports Telegram financially and ideologically while Nikolai (Duvov)’s input is technological.” Currently, the Telegram team is based in Dubai, having moved around from Berlin, London and Singapore after departing Russia. Meanwhile, the company which owns Telegram is registered in the British Virgin Islands.
