CEO Payouts At The 8 Largest Health Insurers.....

The chief executive officers of health insurers are leading their companies through the rough transition into the post-reform market. Some are taking cautious approaches to health insurance exchanges, while others are defying federal cuts to certain programs. But regardless of the approach, they're all continuing to earn top dollar for their work.

Check out this link and click on the names of these 8 executives to see how much they are making:

These poor guys - leading their companies through the rough transition into the post-reform market - I guess then that they deserve this pay - right?

widen the pay gap between top executives and the rank-and-file employees. The only seeming rationale for privatization of the health-care industry is so death-panels can deny coverage and thereby save money to feed higher bonuses and other compensation for the top executives. Ain't 'murika a swell place to live for the well-to-do if they are able to avoid being fatally wounded by some crazed gunman brandishing an assault weapon and who had been prodded to act out on his hatred fostered by right-wing hate organs/stochastic terrorists.

And it's why we'll never see single payer in this country. Don't think for a minute that the website failures weren't planned. Fucking American CEOs - their absolute greed is a cancer itself.
