No one gives a shit about us or our health. Money is the only thing that matters to these people

This. I've actually listened to a telephone conversation where a longtime coworker was told by our health insurance company that they wouldn't pay for his liver transplant. It was about $1 million at the time. He never drank, was with the company for 30+ years, and was 2-3 months from death. They gave him a death sentence on ****ing speakerphone.
Our company ponied up the cash for him, but screw insurance companies.
