But I think what gets missed by that objection is it is a system that they actively created and sustain. According to OpenSecrets, UnitedHealth Group has spent $5,860,000 lobbying in 2024. So yeah, fuck that guy.

I mean, it's not like this guy was forced to be a CEO in that system. There's no shortage of work.
