    Oh, he wasn’t a random guy. He was a mass murder. As in present tense at the time he was executed

      He worked for a company that redistributed wealth for covering healthcare costs, but kept too much for themselves pushing some people into debt, and that company is still operating exactly the same today as it was before.

          He and the rest of the organization’s bigwhigs chose policies that don’t cover the costs of a comparatively small number of people’s medical care. As did the guy who took his place.

          Luigi killed him for that and nothing changed. Why are we supposed to cheer for nothing changing?

        iirc they changed one of their policies shortly after his death. I think it was insulin or something but I can’t remember.

        Yes, there were definitely positive changes after their CEO was executed with popular support

          Can’t find anything anywhere indicating that. The last time they walked back a policy to my knowledge was in 2023.

              Thats not even UHC that was Anthem BCBS and they published the policy change on Thursday while Brian was murdered on Wednesday so unless you think they wrote up changes, held board meetings, and went through the review process as a medicaid provider in under 24hours then it wasn’t even related.

              You should go listen to some of the shit the UHC suits have been saying, its been the polar opposite of apologetic, Brian might as well have been martyr to them.
