But UHC is in a partnership with AARP which a lot of seniors trust.

Not much can be done if its what your employer contracted.

Our system sucks.

They don't even care about each other. They really don't seem to give a rats ass that their CEO was murdered. Slap another guy into his position and keep raking in those profits.

 

Think. Again.

Without artificial intelligence (AI), the masterminds of the Holocaust calculated down to the pfennig the cost-benefit analysis of using the efficient German train system to move Jews en masse, appropriate their properties, gas them cheaply with Zyklon B, extract their gold teeth, etc etc.

The Third Reich made a profit from the deaths of millions of Jews.

Blood-sucking callous American CEOs and elitists are somehow shocked and amazed that suffering and poor people are pissed.

Really?
