Health care pigs

What the head of the health care insurance companies in the US are paid annually:

This is what these people each make, per year, yet they can and see to it that they and their respective companies deny you and I health care procedures when our doctors say we need them.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is unfettered, unregulated, laissez faire, free market Capitalism.

It is also a significant reason why we have the most expensive health care in the world, yet are more likely to die younger here than in 36 other nations.

Sick. The system is sick.

And if we tolerate this and stand for it, we aren't very bright.
