Everything in this country is about greed, money and power.

Vigilante Justice? Surprised it doesn't happen more often with the way average hardworking people are screwed over on a daily basis

Guess that's what happens when treat people like statistics... you become one.

He was shot and taken to hospital but his health insurance company said bullet removal wasnt part of his coverage so he died

[aabb-zbut]

When they don’t do the right thing and the government doesn’t work to serve the people it’s only a matter of time

[rbaduge]

RIP those who departed due to lack of healthcare!

[doughughes]

Have to wonder how many died by the stroke of his pen ?

It was bound to start happening the way companies treat People like resources now a days. Stop healthcare companies from making a profit. It's health care not a business. People in America are fed up with the way we are being treated, be warned big business and politicians we are watching.

Not a lot of compassion for this guy. Maybe the "screw Americans" business model will change.

Gunman was a parent who bankrupted himself paying medical bills for his sick child and finally the child died after being denied treatment so that shareholders can buy another yacht

his huge salary, cars, vacatoons and properties all bought with customers money supposed to buy hel with medical costs. its a racket.

This is what happens when you piss people off. Deny health care to someone because you think you can to save money and get a bonus.

[genuineimpulse]

Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with greed at the cost of care to people.

[wendyjoy]

Someone refused a needed surgery or treatment?

[mistertaffy]

Is it really surprising that people who can't afford healthcare have their lives in the hands of those who seek to profit off your misfortune.

I will neither condemn or condone this, but as the saying goes, "A man is dangerous when he has nothing left to lose."

[Rgtggrvtvtfg]

Probably an angry customer denied healthcare due to this greedy company.

[NeverDoubtTheWorm]

That joint is crazy. CEO’s it’s open season, y’all better have your ish straight

My father passed away from Prostate Cancer in 2018 after me and my family constantly fought with UHC to try to get approval for radiation therapy. Now UHC will understand that they can't continuously mess around with people's lives without consequences.

[claudiaholmes]

While I do not condone this, it's actually understandable.
How many legitimate requests, procedures and medicines does United Health deny on a daily basis?
How many people have died needlessly as a result?
I hate this happened but I'm not broken up about it.

Hold on, isn’t today their investor day!!!
Never mind, they just stated it in the video. They need to start looking at the board of directors and the company finances.
