A few days ago, I had read in the news that the CEO of a major health
insurer was gunned down. This was shocking; it seemed to mean that no
one
was safe from crime.
Then I came across the following information on a web site: that the
health care insurer of which he was the CEO had used an AI system to
process claims; this system rejected 90% of all claims, including many
valid ones.
Maybe this site is a leftist one, and this claim is not true, I don't
know for sure. But if it is true, my sympathy for this homicide victim
basically evaporated. After all, if someone's health insurer doesn't
pay out on valid claims... that person might not get health care. That
kills people. But the legal system wasn't in the process of prosecuting
him as aggressively as any other murderer.

You must keep in mind that the USA does not have a "medical system".
It has a Medical Industry composed of various competing business
enterprises.

"Orange man bad" syndrome. The US has the worst parts of private health
care coupled with the worst parts of public health care. It is a very good
example of taking the worst parts of both and combining them into an
unholy mix.

I said nothing about "orange man". I just stated the obvious
conclusion of his recent court cases.

This is correct. But note that I did not claim you said orange man. I say
that you exhibits symptoms of orange man bad syndrome, or what is also
called Trump derangement syndrome.
