       “UHC has the highest instance of denials out of all major providers, refusing an estimated one-third of claims submitted … UnitedHealthcare also has the largest market share of health insurance policies, with roughly $215 billion in revenue.”https://www.forbes.com/sites/amyfeldman/2024/12/05/unitedhealthcare-denies-more-claims-than-other-insurers---angering-patients-and-health-systems/You kill one man, it’s murder.

       @aral It speaks volumes about America's priorities that they deploy half the NYPD to investigate the murder of this one man along with rolling news coverage, but deliberately killing people by refusing them essential healthcare is deemed par for the course and entirely unremarkable

       @Shivviness Not too surprising. It used to be that owning slaves was legal and escaping slavery was a crime. Law does not imply justice.

       @aral I was saddened to see so many people on here and elsewhere yesterday decrying this act because "it was against the law".As you say, law does not imply justice, and this is especially so when the law effectively doesn't apply to elites

       @aral its like the Eddie Izzard joke"You kill 1 person, you go to prisonYou kill 10 people, you go to Texas and they hit you with a brickYou kill 20 people, you go to a hospital and they look at you through a small window forever but over that we can't comprehend that. If someone kills 100,000 people we're almost saying well done"That's kind of what were are dealing with with the large numbers of deaths related to declined treatmentCapitalism rewards "numbers go up" in all forms
