You're being massively downvoted, not because you are wrong about the cause, but because you are wrong about nobody talking about it. People have been talking non-stop about it ever since Congress voted down Hillarycare in the 90s, and the health insurance companies went psycho.
What people aren't talking about is how this is simply a predictable movement of the Free Market. The CEO had implemented policies that increased financial and medical hardship and suffering, to the point that the market made a spontaneous correction by spawning a customer disgruntled enough to take action.
As a result of that Free Market action, studies have shown that the CEO's company, as well as other health insurance companies, loosened up their policies, at least for a while. Certainly, every health care CEO will think about this Free Market correction the next time they consider implementing some pyscopathic policy.
This is exactly how the Free Market is supposed to work when it is allowed to operate unfettered by regulations, like PedoCons are always demanding. Or we could implement reasonable, common sense regulations that will keep the Psychopathic Oligarchs from going to far with their experiments.
Nobody is talking about THAT.
The free market correcting itself quip right here is just moahh<3
