Medicare doesn't have a CEO. It doesn't have stock options or golden parachutes either."

Wow. I'd like to see the stats explaining how really, truly, Cigna provides 140 times better care than Medicare.
What really is beautiful are the Health Insurance companies blaming ACA as the culprit for gouging the public while rewarding CEO's with obscene compensation packages. Equally as beautiful is that many of us can't see through that? Additionally Obama not calling them on it but I guess their money is as good as anyone else's. What a corrupt ****ing country this has become.

it's a huge problem that nothing has been done about pricing, with us continuing to have by far the most expensive health care....while being behind countries like cuba in delivery of health care-still 37th i think. been a while since i looked. it's too disheartening.
but their compensation is as obscene as with other corporations.
