Protest on ice at United Health's CEO' Mansion
It was cold, but the spirit was warm in front of Stephen Helmsley's mansion on December 18th. As I trudged through the snow I couldn't help but feel how these mostly deserted mansion's contrast with the people that are underhoused and homeless. I assume most of the owners head for warmer climates and other houses while many are wondering where they will spend the night. Reminds me of the beginning of the "Tale of Two Cities". I also couldn't help but think of the past due medical bills I have and the $63.00 dollars I have left in my checking account after working for forty plus years versus Helmsley's $750,000,000.00 in stock options which come out of the toil of the many with the benefit for the few.
