Feasible
The number of people who think that healthcare in the USA is just about perfect is evidently quite high - or the situation would change. So, it probably is easier than you think. There’s a lot of healthy people out there.
Actually, even if you go national, very few people like our system (something like 20% iirc?). And in NY? Fat chance.
You’ve got Citizens United, so both parties are pretty much in the pockets of insurance. They’ll just ignore that desire until more Luigis show up.
The whole jury would have to be made up of CEOs to achieve that. Any lawyer, even the worst one, could argue that they aren’t his peers making the selection invalid.
Here’s a question: how many people making more than $200,000/year or who are independently wealthy actually serve on a jury?
I ask this because every jury pool I’ve been in was made up of working class people. Those too poor don’t vote and so aren’t on their lists, and those too rich always seem to have acceptable reasons to be excused, if they’re ever pooled in the first place.
You don’t have not-have an opinion on the US healthcare system, you just have to claim that your opinion on the healthcare system won’t affect your ability to reach an impartial verdict.
Having health insurance tied to employment is inherently screwing people, so probably not.
This implies that he’s actually guilty. Murder with a good reason is still murder for non-cops and non-soldiers. I think it might even be detrimental to have the jury think he had a good motive.
Yeah just get non-Americans.
I don’t think that would be a hard requirement. If somebody can explain how they will be fair despite a negative experience with an insurance company and the prosecution is okay with it, then they can serve.
Prosecution will strike them. Next.
Yes, people who haven’t had insurance or people who have it but don’t use it because they don’t know they can.
