The answer is no. Unless you are counting his drunk driving and insider trading. His business was operating legally, and he was providing legal orders when directing UHC to deny 30% or more of bills. And that's the problem. Brian didn't commit crimes, but the industry as a whole is insufficiently regulated, and should not be privatized, but they are so large and powerful that the general citizens cannot oust them. Denying any coverage and passing the bill on to the insured party should be illegal, but it isn't.
Yeah, rich people get to operate legally with the laws they create. Who'da thunk?
It's a shame people like you still take every opportunity to sell yourself out so someone you'll never know can be just a bit richer.
I highly recommend you read up on the social contract, it looks like you haven't reached that lesson in grade school yet.
Aww, someone didn't have the attention span to wead da whole comment and now dey are super angwy about it...
Yeah, that's about the response I'd expect from someone like you.
Blocked.
Oh no, he's threatening to hold his breath! What will I even do!?
When you're ready to talk like an adult, I'll talk with you like an adult.
