Unfortunately CORPORATE GREED is rampant in the US and getting worse all the time!!! Corporations are literally taking over EVERYTHING. They are buying up apartment buildings, homes and even trailer parks. They are jacking up the rents. They are buying up hospitals, slashing services and raising prices!!! There was a woman in the news who recently gave birth and afterwards started to bleed. The doctors transferred her to a hospital which had a special type of coil that could stop the bleeding. After she arrived it was revealed that all of the coils had been repossessed by the company that was financing them because the hospital stopped making payments on them. The company that had bought the hospital was making huge profits (including the CEO) but couldn't be bothered to pay the bill for the coils. The poor woman ended up passing away. Her husband is now suing the hospital as he should!!! 😭😢😱Price gouging is out of control with pretty much everything while these corporations make RECORD PROFITS!!!!

Thank you T. I have a hard time understanding how he comes from wealth, never had to struggle to survive, parents are wealthy & part of corp. America but murders a CEO because of greed. This makes no sense. I was a medical biller for 20+ yrs for a major hospital corp & UHC was the Worst to pay claims. It was a constant fight to get them to pay. The wealth gap has been growing & I do not believe that ANY person deserves to make millions per year when so many can barely survive. As a society, people need to stop & think & quit worshiping the wealthy. Whether we want to admit it or not, that is exactly what we do. In the U.S. we pay more for our healthcare than anywhere else in the world with an infant/Mother mortality rate that is the same as a 3rd world country. This is a fact.

[@Fuzzamajumula]

I agree with you. The top 3% are given cart blanche to accumulate money in any way they can. People are just a commodity to them. We should never have gotten so low that we have individuals who are wealthy enough to send people into space, and believe that they actually deserve that money. They ignore the fact that they would be nothing without being propped up by millions of poor people. They don't care how many women and infants die, as long as they have workers to feed their machines. Personally, I don't care that this kid came from wealth; and while I don't condone violence as a means to an end, I can't say that I'm sorry that it happened. These people are completely oblivious to the impact of the income gap and how it oppresses people. They don't care if people die so that they can get richer. So I'm not sorry.

He didn't care about his charmed life and wanted to do something about the injustices he saw, especially if he had his own axe to grind with his own physical ailments. Health is wealth. People see all the superficial materialistic BS and think that fortune makes one fortunate. Life is about so much more than excess. Sadly, there is more than enough to go around, but we live in a world where access to resources is controlled and division is necessary to maintain power. I completely understand how someone who seemingly had a very charmed life could become bored with that and want more from his existence. I don't agree with what Luigi did, but I do understand.

[@richiehoyt8487]

The worst of it is that, if I'm being honest, most people, when they hear 'Back Issues', are kinda, "Yeah, yeah, sure pal... (Malingerer, whinger, etc...)" I suppose in part because those people _are_ out there, and partly, a lot of folks just want to see the worst in people! For people that _do_ have real back issues, maybe trying not to cry out in pain, all but paralyzed (I used to see this with my late wife, who was categorically neither a whinger, nor a shirker) this must be maddening! I lost my leg some years back, and even though it was above the knee, I'd venture that it was less disabling for me than the problems my wife used to have with her back when she was having a flare up were for her! However, because my problems were out there for all to see (especially when I wasn't using my artificial leg), and her difficulties were invisible, I got _sooo_ much more sympathy than she did! Even from _her,_ so much was she not a whinger!

Most procedures are 30-40% less than one would pay a private dentist in the surrounding area. They also offer Care Credit which is interest free if promotions are paid on time, or else interest is 29% from the day the charges were put on the card. I find it helpful and pay it off far more quickly than necessary. They take a couple of dental insurances, but their names escape me at the moment. Hope this helps.

I would never make him guilty, he was insane, and insanity must be treated not locked up behind bars.

[@Danielleb723]

I'm so sorry for your pain but it sounded like in Luigi's case he had access to money if he had to pay out of pocket. Obviously I don't know for sure but I think most likely could have figured out a way to make that happen. He had a good job and came from a long line of money. I get trying to figure things out on your own but asking for help would have been a better option versus murdering a man in cold blood. I doubt he will be getting any significant care in jail. The way you explained that he drifted away from family and friends says to me he was dealing with significant mental health issues probably on top of severe pain. Very sad he threw his life away like that. But murder is unjustifiable.

[@Danielleb723]

I just wanted to add to my previous comment that I hope it didn't come across that I took your video as justifying murder. I understand anger towards the insurance industry but I just think with his background I would have hoped he could have found a better way to handle his anger. Maybe he could have really made a difference but instead he threw his life away.

[@bethpent8851]

I dont think he had mental issues at all! I think his pain was so bad and he felt his situation was hopeless. I think that stopped him from persuing any relationship so their wasnt even a chance of a woman dealing with it or understanding because he couldnt let it get that far. I feel so bad for him because he let the pain take an emotional toll on him. Im sure his family will get him the best lawyers so im glad about that. I just hope their is some way that the jury can take some kind of pity on him because his pain wrecked him mentally and i hope the Judge can also feel some kind of sadness for him!! Well have to wait and see. Its clear that this young man had everything going for him and the agony took over him and ruined his life!!!!

[@danlowe8684]

His teeth changed.

[@frankwhite3659]

I totally agree with your assessment.

[@ecoxocticeternal816]

He probably felt he had to help others out too in the process of dealing with his own pain.

[@oksanaiavorovska7768]

Very sadly for this educated young fellow who choose the worth way to help his problem, if it is the case. Unpredictable and unreasonable action could be happen any time even for more victims...he well planned his declining end...

[@Monkeybar54621]

I heard that in Canada their Health Care is Universal, and they don’t pay monthly premium. And I believe they can do this because they tax the rich🤣😅😂🤣😅😂🤣😅😂🤣

[@emilien.]

As I read through these comments, I am deeply saddened for all those with stories of constant pain. I've had some issues in this area, but can keep mine at bay through adjustment maneuvers I gleaned from a physical therapy video on YT. I cannot fully imagine what people with major conditions are going through with chronic pain amplified X amount of times. And I'm not talking solely about the physical aspect. I believe Mr. Magione's story and actions may very well be a historic case that, like a bucket of freezing cold water slapping our national face, can be "the" wake up call to the issue of health care. Worse cases of health industry pillaging exist and more egregious crimes exist, but timing is everything. My plea is not for violence. Any idiot can destroy. I ask ALL of us, what can be collectively built from this?

[@BedCrimeStories]

I think that you are reasonable and you just wrote it out so beautifully. I agree with everything you said here. How can we fix the problems in the health care industry/insurance industry because there are problems without a doubt.

[@BedCrimeStories]

Apparently his pain comes and goes with his movements. He can be painfree and then turn and bingo, the pain kicks in (per a friend of his). I'm also wondering if the surgery maybe fixed part of the problem but even with improvement, he still felt outrage (prob not the case but I'm just trying to figure out how he moved like Spider Man on that bike).

[@luckycharm1611]

He deserves no sympathy. His back pain is his medical condition. How will killing someone cure it. He was not poor so money was not an issue to take treatment and how is he going to live the harsh jail life with his back pain, did he think he will get away with murder....he was not so intelligent after all

[@OoMASEoO]

the jail bed is gonna be great for his back. Oh sweet irony. I want to hear from him after a year in jail to hear how much he regrets doing this.

I could. It's murder and there is no justification. We have a Justice system for a reason. People who claim he is some kind of hero is automatically disqualified for their bias.

[@nadiasingh8700]

I think he did it for the people, yes he himself was rejected by insurance company but I do think he’s learned of so many other people journey who are poor and because she has pain himself he can relate and he wanted to help them, make a change

Disconnect health care from government. Regain the direct relationship between doctor and patient. The government and corporations are the middleman taking a huge commission on American sickness which they have engendered. College tuition was a small fraction for myself compared to what it was for my sons because, in their time, the government loans were fully in operation, enabling the skyrocketing tuition bills. Get government out of all these places that they ruin.

[@trishemerald2487]

I had bad TMJ pain in undergrad. The only thing that worked was wearing a top mouthguard all the time. Bottom ones don't help me. Have you tried botox in the affected area? Luckily, mouthguard treatment eventually worked (top only) for me. This was before botox was used for TMJ pain. Also, a physio might help with exercises. That said, maybe you've already tried all this... Bon courage!

It’s surprising this guy could ride a bike with his back condition. Chronic pain is not good, but so is the chronic pain Brian Thompson’s young children will experience now their father was executed.

Apparently, the pain came and went, depending on his movements. So he had moments where it was bearable or where he didn't feel it.

I'm NOT defending insurance companies who allow people to suffer like this, but there is no excuse for murder. An eye for an eye just makes the whole world blind. You know how many people in pain and more (me), and had issues with Insurance companies, never did they pick up a gun and kill, rather get a lawyer. NO Excuse for murder.....He is not a hero, he is now a murderer. Ruined his whole life, wasn't he supposed to be smarter than that, well I guess not. Perfect example how a piece of paper from a college and so called accomplishments don't prove who you really are, or what you are capable of. Who knows maybe he got everything easy in life (recognition from the school because of his grandfathers and family businesses(i.e. above the law) ), and when he didn't get his way this was his way of throwing a tantrum, instead of using professionalism in obtaining a lawyer to address the Health care company giving him an issue, that would have been easier than murder getting caught, ruining your whole life and families (the victim's family) life and going to jail the rest of your life, all that education, didn't educate him on that did it. Hello. You can't buy common sense.

[@awaitingSaint777]

TMJ is a real B. Don't do the surgery. It doesn't have a good success rate. Look into maliofacial therapy. Wear a night guard. Also, there's specialty ice packs for tmj. Like a headband . Helps. Hope you get some relief. ❤
