        In what other sense was he “right”? In thinking that the US has a shitty health care system? I think we knew that already.

          Right in choice of target, perhaps?

          That’s what I assumed they meant, but I’m not sure.

          You could ask them.

        All claims, you say? Without questioning? You sure about that?

        UnitedHealth Group CEO Andrew Witty defended the company’s claim denial practices in an internal video which was leaked after the fatal shooting of Thompson. Recorded on December 5, the day after Thompson’s death, Witty emphasized the company’s role in ensuring “safe and appropriate” care and that the insurance giant will continue to prevent "unnecessary care”.[169] Two months after the shooting, UnitedHealth hired a defamation law firm to take action against social media posts critical of the company.[170] Prosecutors alleged that the killing had scared 40 UHC executives into hiring bodyguards.[171]

        Yeah, and all that has since been rolled back, cause the shareholders got scared for their dividends. Clearly far more valuable than employee lives, regardless the flavor of employee.
