    Why are healthcare denials sent to and shouldered by patients? If you go to an in network facility, that place is vetted by insurer. So why isn’t a ‘denial’ a matter between the provider and the insurer and transparent to the patient?

      Why are there networks, health insurance companies, co-payments, payment disputes/ negotiations of prices, and people suffering from not receiving medical care?

      Oh yeah, because this way it costs us significantly more and we can think we are doing better than others in life by acquiring a job where we have linked medical coverage too.

      The fact that there are “classes” of healthcare is just repulsive.

    Too bad they will make damn sure this doesn’t hurt the shareholders but the people themselves.

    The fucking disgusting bit is that’s less than 8%. So it’s still only 3% lower than it was at the beginning of the year

    How many people died for that line?

      Yes but have you considered that line goes down? Line must never go down so further cuts must be made to ensure line goes up next quarter.

    If Luigi has shorted the company with some leverage, he might now be incredibly wealthy

        Now even the poor can get away with insider trading using crypto. Not that anyone should start doing do this professionally. 😇

          Are you referring to betting sites like Polymarket? Or just like generally creating shit coins to pump and dump?

    Luigi, I can forgive a lot, but shareholder value… How could you, man?

    How am I supposed to tell my kids about his when they are back from the character building camp I sent them to where they were hunting lesser human beings for sport in an eastern European country I won’t name? This is really going to crush their big, delicate hearts…

      Pff, peasant, sending your children off to some far ofd shithole. Shell out some real money and I’m pretty sure you can find some human hunting grounds within the U S of A. Turn it into family bonding time like a good father.

        Hey!!! DON’T YOU DARE call it a far off shithole!!! That is the place were I get the underaged nannies that I get pregnant from! These are the undocumented mothers of some of the children I don’t care about as much as my “on the books” kids, but they have my DNA - so have some fucking respect!

        Actually, I sense a little jealously as you’ve probably realized that I can/will be able to farm all of these tier 2 children’s organs eventually to extend the life of my pure A-tier family. Green does not look good on you, buddy!

      We need a George Soros who would pay off private security companies who you know these CEOs pay very poorly to look the other way when they reach a quiet dark not very populated destination.

        At that point, just bribe one of the security team members to do it and smaller bribes for everyone else on the security team to not see it.
