    SAIF is a state-chartered not-for-profit and the largest workers’ compensation agency in Oregon. Terhune has been CEO of SAIF since 2021, when his base salary was $500,000. While his exact salary is not reported, he has he regularly received raises and “incentive payments” of 35-40%, according to SAIF’s annual reports. In 2024, according to calculations from the 2021 base salary, Terhune’s salary was around $562,323 and his bonus amounted to something like $216,000.

    Despite being a “not for profit,” it sure seems like the CEO made a lot of profit for themself.

    The median salary for full-time workers in Oregon is $61,671.

    I mean, what was the CEO wearing? Maybe they should think more about their own safety… there’s common sense precautions that can be taken, like not being the CEO of an American for-profit healthcare company.

    SAIF is a state run public corporation directed by a board appointed by the governor to operate a needed service for the benefit of the public. Its structure is similar to Amtrak. This is not a good target at all for anti for profit healthcare protest. (Even if the CEO is still paid too much)

          How else can you pay people who are working at a non profit? Thank you’s dont pay bills, but neither taking home half a million in the name of non-profit.

          How much of that money goes to those executives and their “vacations” aka fundraising?

      $600k/y is not “the rich”. That’s on the upper end of American middle class in 2025 if you consider the same quality of living as the same upper end 30 years ago.

      The folks making $5, $10, $50 million/y are the ones we should be focusing on.

      Not the CEO of a state ran, nonprofit, critical insurance agency who makes ~2x as much as a mid level software engineer at Netflix.

    Yeah, I’ve got some tips…

    One, don’t be a moron and send threatening emails before the job is done, that just puts people on alert and makes it more likely you get caught, especially considering traceability of email.

    Two, don’t fire blindly into a house you colossal moron, you can probably find a hiding spot good enough to wait until your target comes outside so you can get a clear shot.

    Three, don’t pull out the gun until you’ve got a confirmed target, and don’t pull the trigger unless you’re goddamn sure you got a killing shot, on the right target. Remember one of the things everyone likes about Luigi is that he was successful, and the other thing everyone likes is he didn’t hurt anyone.

    And four, if successful, once you get out of the immediate area, make sure not to be carrying around any goddamn incriminating evidence.

      This, especially the first point. When 9/11/2001 happened, the world had no clue it was coming. It was planned and then executed. There were no threats, no messages; bin-Laden didn’t release a statement until after the attacks were carried out. They just did it, they didn’t talk about doing it.

      If the end goal is to thin the herd, yeah, all those points matter.

      If the goal is to terrify the CEOs into compliance or get them to take an early retirement package, threats and potshots will do fine.

      Still should consider not using email, though.

          I mean yeah, I’ve been saying he was a patsy since the day he was arrested. The dude manages to evade capture for an entire week, then gets caught with a written manifesto and the entire (easily disassembled and broken into pieces to be scattered where cops will never find the entire thing) ghost gun fully intact? The entire thing smells like “accidentally” disabled body cams and planted evidence.

            Yeah, especially the ghost gun thing. The point of having that is to get rid of it when you’re done and it can’t be traced. Why go through the effort of getting a ghost gun if you’re going to keep it? It doesn’t make sense.

      he didn’t hurt anyone

      … else?

      Also, while the state and federal government claim otherwise, they carry the burden of proof and Luigi Mangione currently claims innocence. So, unless you are also accusing him, you should add some qualifier to “[Luigi] was successful”.

        … else?

        This presumes I would consider the creature that was killed as ‘someone’.

        And sure, legally he has to claim that. But unless all the evidence they found on him was planted, which I think is a bit too much of a stretch (not because I don’t think they would do it, but because I think it would be too likely to come out that it was planted), then in any situation where my comments do not cause legal jeopardy I don’t have an issue talking about him doing it as though it were fact.

      The reality is that Lugi was one in a billion: smart enough to plan and execute something like this, but also had the motivation (due to health problems and personal reasons) to actually do it.

      Most people who grab a gun to solve problems are unfortunately just lunatics, we just got lucky with Luigi.

      Put your hands together.

      You gotta shoot up the children of the CEO’s. Make them hurt like every family of someone who has died because they were denied care. Make being a healthcare CEO a pariah. Make them afraid not only for their own lives, but for the lives of everyone around them. Make associating with them as risky as riding shotgun with a supremely drunken manic-depressive in a Swastikar on the autobahn at midnight in the dead of winter.

      Make being a healthcare CEO the most dangerous job on the planet, and being friends/family with them only slightly less risky.

      It’s just common sense. You fire into the home of a CEO working in a corrupt industry and you kill what, like five people? Maybe more?

      Shooting up a school can have a way higher body count. It’s a no-brainer.

        Line must go up! That’s what I learned from shareholders. But what line, you ask? Any line. Shareholders don’t care what the line shows, as long as it goes up. Can’t have less children killed in school shooting than last year, that’s just bad business.

          In all morbid honesty, that is bad business to many people. There’s people getting rich selling security to schools. If the shootings stop then their income stops. That also, in a fake made up way, contributes to GDP, so “The Economy” also gets hurt.

      They mention a yearly bonus of around $200k in addition to his $550k/yr salary, but he may very well receive additional bonuses for meeting sales quotas or god knows what else. Not to mention stock options, which are given to every executive as a kind of tax-free additional salary.

      All that to say, I wouldn’t feel too bad for him.
