Luigi Mangione’s manifesto reveals his hatred of insurance companies: The man accused of killing Brian Thompson gets American health care wrong

>Sadly, changing health-care policy is easier to talk about than to do.

Indeed, one notable contributor to shorter lifespans has nothing to do with doctors. That is, the 20,000 or so murders committed each year with guns. ■
