Sick (And Not in a Good Way).



Interesting.

All the angst expelled over Wall Street executives' compensation, yet no one questions the amount of dollars health care CEOs call take home pay.

Well, that is, until Sick for Profit ran the numbers:

UnitedHealthcare CEO Stephen Hemsley owns $744,232,068 in unexercised stock options. CIGNA’s Edward Hanway spends his holidays in a $13 million beach house in New Jersey. Meanwhile, regular Americans are routinely denied coverage for the care they need when they need it most. Welcome to the American health insurance industry. Instead of helping policyholders attain the health security they need for their families, big insurance companies get rich by denying coverage to patients. Now they’re sending lobbyists to Washington, DC to twist the arms of lawmakers to oppose reform of the status quo. Why? Because the status quo pays.

Check out the kind of money made off the American people here.
