A national response of ~~apathy~~ hatred over the cold-blooded murder of a corporate medical business leader may be a reason to take a closer look at our corporate medical system.

Things will change for sure.

First, they might wear body armor now. Next, they might rethink walking the streets alone, and instead have bodyguards.

Since those cost money, everyone's benefits will be cut and they'll have to raise rates all across the board!

Put at least one in the head to be sure.

You're making the assumption that they haven't already jacked the rates up to the max the market will support

OK, I agree that will be the reaction. So maybe some will take the action a little further down the line from CEO.
