Summary
Reddit’s r/medicine moderators deleted a thread where doctors and users harshly criticized murdered UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
Comments, including satirical rejections of insurance claims for gunshot wounds, targeted UHC’s reputation for denying care to boost profits.
Despite the removal, similar discussions continue, with medical professionals condemning UHC’s business practices under Thompson’s leadership, which a Senate report recently criticized for denying post-acute care.
Thompson, shot in what appears to be a targeted attack, led a company notorious for its high claim denial rates, fueling ongoing debates about corporate ethics in healthcare.
Lol of I was with that CEO in the trolley I would have probably pushed him off a long time ago, sticks or not…
I do believe that billionaires are evidence of abuse to the extreme.
I do not see the difference between a billionaire and a slave owner because in actuality as most people have said previously, they have gained their wealth through the suffering of others.
I wish the government would tax them for at least a fifth of there salary considering no one needs a billion dollar to live, it’s pure fantasy
Well to be fair when someone speaks in such a polite manner I tend to assume the worst of them.
As a French Canadian I do not support capitalism in its current form. I think we need to abandon our capitalist roots and create a new hybrid system which makes it more balanced but also, I would say I am. Living in a country where corporations don’t have as much power. You are right, I am not an American so I haven’t live what you have however I know that it’s current system is bull.
As a personal note I have always supported Bernie Sanders however there is a huge portion of Americans who chose to close their eyes one hat is going on. I tend to follow the George Carlin philosophy to doubt my leaders good intentions while also taking personal responsibilities for the leader we have.
It’s very easy to say that politics is shit but hard to actual do something about it.
How many time has Senator Sanders been rejected and yet he still comes back and I respect him for that, always will be user he is the type of leader America needs if the democratic party wasn’t as broken… I don’t care for the republicans either as they have become a religious cult…
Anyway, sorry if I became personal, it was not justified. All the best to you and your family. Quebec and Vermont have always shared similar vakurdt
And yet, for someone who is so enlightened you lash out and name call me instead of actually debating with me.
That is on you, I did not personally attack you until you did.
That is as far as I well go on this discussion.
Best of luck
Fuck Reddit and the life is cheap US healthcare system.
