I acn't wait till Trump takes power. Dr. Mehmet Oz is an advocate for Medicare Advantage. It is to health care what CDOs are to finance.
It's going to be GOOD.

To be honest, I've not seen a whole lot of sympathy for the CEO from anyone, regardless of what political stripe they wear.
In fact, I think this whole episode has opened the eyes of people across the spectrum as to how predatory and cunning the American health insurance industry actually is. The CEO made $10.2 million a year and the policies his company makes deny about one-third of claims -- a decision like that is coming straight from the CEO. That's a lot of people left unable to pay for needed healthcare or being left bankrupted from it.
The US health insurance sector doesn't give a damn if a person is a Democrat or Republican -- they fuck over everyone equally.
Its not quite a monopoly but its highly concentrated. There needs to be some significant reform to the health insurance industry.
He was not one of the founders of Company. The Company started back in the 1970's. He joined United Healthcare Group in 2004 and became the CEO of its Medicare and Medicaid business in 2017 and then its entire insurance division in April 2021. Sourced right from his LinkedIn page.
It goes beyond that though, because lots of wealthy people are being denied healthcare claims as well

Don't think he's going to enjoy prison. Just before Christmas. One of those things you probably regret you didn't think through.

It’s because of how New York codifies its murder statutes. In New York first degree murder is reserved for people charged with killing police officers, government officials, witnesses, contract killing, multiple murders and a few other special categories.
New York’s second degree murder is the intentional murder count that most states codify as first degree murder.
Here is New York’s first degree murder statute.

And here is their second degree statute.
https://newyork.public.law/laws/n.y._penal_law_section_125.25
It carries 15-25 years in prison

Penalties for Second-Degree Murder
Second-degree murder is a serious felony, and a conviction almost certainly will result in a prison sentence, even if the offender has no criminal history. They may face life imprisonment in some cases. Here are some examples of sentencing ranges:
- Arizona: 10-25 years (16 years presumptive)
- California: Generally 15 years to life
- Colorado: 16-48 years
- Florida: Up to 30 years, or up to life
- Massachusetts: Life imprisonment, but eligible for parole after 15-25 years
- New York: Minimum term of 15-25 years
- Texas: 5-99 years, or life imprisonment (Texas does not distinguish between first-degree and second-degree murder)
