Guessing there are people in this country who think you are grossly overpaid for whatever you do OP. I’m sure you have much more than any one person truly “needs”. It’s easy to say “a billion is too much” but very hard to say what the lower limit should be.

I think after salaries and overhead are paid, there should be no profit in healthcare.

so all healthcare is non-profit? assume this applies to doc and hospital systems?

In my Utopia, yes. Everyone is paid a very healthy salary commiserate with their training and experience. Money is set aside for research, and maintenance on buildings and equipment, etc. But any money leftover is not used to pad corporate pockets. Any monies left beyond that mean that premiums were too high and should be lowered accordingly.

You realize insurance company profits are a tiny fraction of health care costs, right?

No, they still dont understand industry margins or scale. That’s why they have a blogger gig.

Who cares what the margin is, when the bottom line is $16-23 BILLION in profit.

We need more flirty banter details and I want to see the chick in interview. Did he have an accent or try a cheesy one-liner?

I thought the guy was sloppy because of the water bottle and stuff. Seems not.

The engraved bullets, the staring straight into a camera in a cab, the monopoly money, evading capture as long as he has... Guy may not be a pro (I don't think he is and never have) but he's clearly pretty smart and playing games. Combined with public sentiment, I think he is on the run for awhile and people won't be eager to to turn him in. FBI and police are people too, who are probably aware pics of him in handcuffs won't exactly make them look like heroes so who knows how committed they remain, especially if it turns out he jumped on an international flight same day and things goes on for awhile.

Im curious how much money this guy has to play around with. His backpack was apparently expensive and they think he was in NY for about a month which makes me think he doesn’t have a job.

He was working.

They need to up the reward to 1 million.

Who would put up that kind of money?

UHC? Yeah, that'll look great for them.

NYPD? Also an awful look, compared to other rewards for other unsolved crimes.

No one wins by catching this guy or offering up a hefty reward.

The guys salary was 10 million last year. Ten percent is easily doable, but only if his family cares. They obviously don’t. 10,000 is what a family making 100K could scrounge up as a reward. This is just embarrassing.

The family hasn't put up any money. 10k was NYC police. 50k is FBI.

BT’s family? It sounds like they have that kind of money.

PPs said he and his wife were separated. If that’s true, the wife has a lot on her plate, emotionally, logistically, and financially. Putting up a big reward may not be at the top of the list.

I would feel unsafe on a personal level if my spouses killer was on the loose.

No one is going to target the estranged wife, especially if this is about claim denials.

This guy is really brazen. Looking right at the camera in the cab. Leaving the monopoly money. I suspect that leaving the starbucks stuff behind was intentional. Maybe he's not a professional, but he is really good and he is trolling them big-time.

He looked directly at the camera in the cab on purpose. The only mistake he made was to flirt with that woman at the hostel. And he is clearly much smarter than the cops.

That could be plausible, except for the problems with the gun. Because he was clearly expecting the gun to function again after firing the first shot. Except it didn’t. He tried to fire, realized it hadn’t cycled the action, and then had to cycle it manually to get it to fire again. Then he had to repeat that process several more times. That means he hasn’t previously tested this gun and suppressor combination before. That’s something that a professional would never do - go into a job with untested gear.


Other than that, your theory is plausible.

I thought they weren’t actual jams but that this particular gun model had to be manually cycled between shots. But either way, he clearly knew what he was doing in handling it with ease. It didn’t seem to throw him off.

+1. I don't know much about guns, but whatever happened he didn't miss a beat.

Also the way he walked off completely calm. A regular person would have panicked and ran, especially since there was a witness right next to him. He knew not to attract attention.

Killers are often calm immediately after especially if premeditated like this was. I think he tried a few things to be cute but over 10 days in NYC he made mistakes.

I am truly shocked that five days later - the suspect has still not been identified or located.

The pictures are very clear in spite of him being photographed wearing a facial mask. 😷

Perhaps people are not taking this murder too seriously.
After all, SNL actually had a few jokes about it on their “Weekend Update” this past weekend.

I wonder if this is due to the fact that people are just pissed about the state of healthcare in our country now….

Oh gawd…..

This is like the “Get Out Of Jail Free” card in relation to the cops announcing that the killer was carrying Monopoly monies in his discarded backpack.

I was thinking this morning that it seems strange to me that the original photo of the suspect taken in Starbucks, which does not look like the guy in these subsequent photos at all, but is much more likely to be the suspect, no longer appears anywhere. Does anybody else find it strange? I do not believe the taxi photos--or even the hostel photos-are actually the suspect.
