Good. I benefit from phenomenal health coverage, but I won’t shed a tear for any insurance company for the harm they almost universally cause less fortunate people.

    This investigation is about them defrauding the government, not their customers.

    Them (allegedly) having it both ways is very cynical, but entirely predictable. It's utterly amazing someone believed a service like health-care should be driven by profit to ensure the best outcomes.

Nobody will be going to jail for this. Corporations are people - until accountability comes up.

    Fraud is pretty typically punished with jail, so I'm not sure. Will be interesting to watch what happens. I worked there and I really cannot overstate the level of grift operating at all levels. Not all there are bad but holy moly cow!
