UnitedHealth recently helped kill single-payer health care legislation in California.

Gov. Gavin Newsom backed off his previous support of the idea -- after he & Dems received huge money from UnitedHealth donors. https://buff.ly/3ZPLOPu

I worked for them back when the affordable healthcare act was being fought over in Congress. I remember being in a meeting room for a pep rally style “talk” from a leader, who urged all of us to flood our elected officials with messages to vote against this.

At the time, they were shitting their pants over the thought of losing out on all the insurance premiums. Within a short amount of time they figured out how to make even more money, taking advantage of the affordable care act.

I was involved later on in a contract that basically was presenting an easy way for states to determine whether or not they could reduce services to people on Medicaid.

I got out of that place and now I’m in a union and feel much better about myself and my work.
