Looks like UHC didn't learn a damn thing.

It's the Free Market at work! The last healthcare CEO that got this psychopathic spawned a Free Market correction in the form of a pissed off customer who murdered him. As a result, his company, and all the other healthcare companies, loosened up their denials. THAT'S a perfect example of the Free Market at work.

It looks like we're due for another Free Market correction.

Damn. Chat, are the libertarians correct here for once?

Idk do libertarians support monopolies and being forced to work to afford healthcare?

The core libertarian philosophy of "Anyone can do what they want and is free to choose" reminds me of this: https://xkcd.com/1060/

Like yes, that's true, that's why I'm choosing to build a better society through socialism.
