The attack on the 50-year-old executive—allegedly by the now 27-year-old Luigi Mangione—immediately sparked an outpouring of public fury not at the gunman, but at UnitedHealthcare itself.

They're struggling to get over their own policies which were already unpopular but did serious damage once people discussed how crappy those policies were. Luigi was the spark. They built the house of match sticks and poured gasoline on it.

UHC also one of the worst Healthcare insurance out there, im guessing the news is bringing too much attention to them.

I'd never heard of UHC until the CEO dropped dead and it got blamed on St. Luigi, who I still assert is a legitimate religious figure.

my parents plan uses OPtumhealth for prescriptions, which is under UHC umbrella. then we found out who WITTY was the big man in chage of UHG, thompson was just his underling. he was the fool that was doubling down in the news right after brian got shot.
