Answer: not unless we have a great deal more of it.
Since CEOs and others are ramping up their security guard details as this post is being written -- just heard a security company owner saying their phones are JAMMED -- one suspects that this will be the only major change ie. it will become exponentially more challenging to use the "CEO solution." Good news though: anyone can be got.
Certainly the issue is a little - though not that much - more publicized and resentments a bit more out of the closet. But let’s be honest; it was ALREADY a subject of major discussion not merely online - which we tend to confuse with reality - but in our homes, hospitals, homeless shelters, and retirement homes around this country. That is reality. That’s what drove “the adjuster.” And if you expect any major changes, think again.
The fact is that money rules. We live in a plutocracy. Our Congress, Executive, and Judiciary have all been purchased outright by the people who effectively own us. If you don’t feel “had,” you’re not paying attention. And it will take more than one unalive CEO to budge the ginormous pile of trillions of $$ in play. The clutching hands of the greedy do NOT willingly let go of their wad … or their power.
Give “the adjuster” credit.
If the American people carry off some kind of revolt, it will almost certainly be in the wrong direction; you know, like the one they just voted for - mass deportations, deregulation, censorship, the final complete destruction of the public education system, antivax hysteria, Christianization (because theocracies have worked so well in the past), and because it’s good for business and the single thing the USA does best, more war. It seems highly unlikely that Americans will be able to conduct a reforming revolution. For one thing, we share NO CORE SET OF PRINCIPLES UPON WHICH WE ALL AGREE ... with the possible exception of making money by literally almost and in a great many cases… any means possible. That is literally “it” at the moment. Second, the country is still too compfortable ... not to mention distracted.
Now the arrest has been made. Hero? Victim? Villain?
Wish you all well and welcome your thoughts. More coming.

Well ... getting out the security for CEOs instead of addressing gun violence AND health care company greed in total! Keep putting a bandaid on a gaping infected wound that won't heal. Now WE are going to be paying even more for ourselves to be DECLINED so they can add security for millionaires.
Future adjusters will have to get creative. Your Healthcare scammers have created the causes for this kind of reaction which was inevitable
