It's a horrendous thing. To see a person killed before their time when they didn't have to die. Just like what happens to thousands of Americans each year who are denied coverage. If we're actually honest with ourselves, the only reason this one is seen as a tragedy by politicians and CEOs is that there was no profit to be had in it.

The CEO got shot just two days after the anniversary of John Brown's execution. I'm sure JB smiled upon this assassin from the afterlife.
