    There’s really no other answer as they have forgotten the lessons of their forebearers. When the working class can take no more they do not die, they kill. They don’t mean to, they don’t want to, they would rather slowly die than kill, but they kill all the same.

    Employers used to be dragged out into the street along with their family and beat to death in front of their family if they failed to provide a fair deal to their employees; even as capital paid for protection in the military or police, that did nothing to stop the workers, as workers are not slaves and are not raised to understand themselves as such.

    As capital once again ruins the good will that keeps it alive, this will just happen more and more. It takes one bad day to make a good person decide that suicide is not an adventure for a single person.

      I wouldn’t say no other. Rich assholes probably also make a lot of personal enemies. But there have to be many thousands of people with a deadly grudge against someone whose business is all about denying lifesaving coverage to people who dutifully paid the premiums that boosted their bottom lines.
