    This was easily more popular than either candidate in the last election. They should make it a national holiday.

            In the words of UnitedHealth: claim denied.

            Sick would be rejecting over a third of the people who expected their coverage to do what it says on the box— cover them. Sick would be letting people suffer and die in the name of profits.

                Agreed, but the good news is you can stop any time.

            Why don’t you care that this guys actions have lead to the deaths of 10s of 1000s of people, and has probably caused pain, physical and emotional, to 100s of 1000?

            And they’re probably minimal figures.

        For a single rich dude? Come on. Most couldn’t care less about random people they don’t know dying, why should we go out of our way to mourn this guy, who, by the way, made it his life goal to put profits over people?
