a lot of people somehow missed the fact that luigi's actions worked to force change immediately.

"somehow" as in the media kept that part quiet as best they could.

Temporarily IIRC. Didn't they quietly revert their changes later, denying just as many claims again?

I've said it before.

People are alive today that wouldnt be alive if someone hadnt shot that UHC CEO.

The entire insurance industry got so scared and so panicked that they stopped denying coverage for curable issues for like.. the next year. Hundreds, thousands, possibly tens of thousands of people are alive today, and are in better health today, because one vile piece of shit got shot and died.

Thats an easy trade to make any day of the week.
