This is the kind of thing DOGE will target. Any friction in the gov that slows the greed must go.

Google David Joyner. These asshats were proud to show their face and brag about their greed until now. Their pictures are all over the internet.

America in a nutshell. Native Americans, slaves, free black people, Asian migrants, poor people, laborers in mines and factories ( triangle fire), Mexican migrants, soldiers (basically poor people)...

Everyone but the wealthy white men. Several orders of magnitude more police resources are being used to solve this 1 gun violence death, than the other hundreds of murders in NYC this year.

"To be clear, it never was and never will be the policy of Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield to not pay for medically necessary anesthesia services. The proposed update to the policy was only designed to clarify the appropriateness of anesthesia consistent with well-established clinical guidelines."

They want to redefine what's considered medically necessary.

Insurance is a misnomer. This is extortion.

One state senator in Connecticut says they told him it won't happen in his state.

Why do we believe these people at all anymore?

Til next year when things cool down. These a holes love to pull a fast one. The money seems a little greener if they fool you into thinking you're not getting fucked.

Yeah this guy probably had a LinkedIn page bragging about how much he's done, so he can get paid the most to do it.

He almost certainly publicly touted his efforts (if not on LinkedIn, another way) to deny people healthcare, so he could make more money. This is not a way to earn my empathy when it backfires.

Because it has inelastic demand, meaning I'm going to pay for it even if the cost is very high.

That's why is run for profit. Its also why it shouldn't be, but certainly why it is.

The latter if I had to guess. This is some French revolution type of radicalization. The wealthy are radicalizing their victims. Hard to empathize.

Does this just look like what he wore, or is this coming from some sort of forensic analysis of the video? That's expensive stuff!

“One of the reasons that she has remained so active in this particular field is because she has seen what it does to people when they can’t get insurance to cover the healthcare they need."

Sadists.
