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.

    I work with spreadsheets that help companies pick insurance plans for their employees. Like one spreadsheet tells them about new treatments they may want to add coverage on. Another one compares their employees’ current needs against available plans, so they can make sure that they’re not leaving anyone high and dry if they switch plans. I don’t use a lot of sarcasm.

    I’d follow up with a witty rejoinder, but I don’t know what line of work you’re in. I’m guessing you write awesome 1980s-style action movies? Or maybe a guitarist/lyricist for a rock band?

      IT, health care. I’ve seen the stats on the insurance rejections and the patients in collections, so pardon my bitterness towards you and yours.
