    Insurance companies pay exorbitant amounts of money to tell politicians that single payer insurance isn’t a feasible option.

    Insurance companies lose a lot of money when they have to hire a new CEO because the other one died.

    For several months after the UHC CEO was shot, cases were denied significantly less often and were handled much faster than usual. This cost the insurance companies money too.

    In other words, if you’d like your vote for single-payer insurance to ever be heard, you have to quit down the really loud insurance companies and the only way to do that is to burn their pockets.
