Pretty sure this scab had the best health insurance available, and he'd get "mates rates" either way. Plus his total comp was 10 million last or this year, so financial suffering was never on the cards if he lived.

His family and the company will probably both get a massive life insurance payout, unless murder wasn't covered.

That would be so funny if the life insurance company refuses to pay out.

That sort of thing only happens to poor people.

In 2023, UnitedHealth Group generated a net income of approximately 23.14 billion U.S. dollars.

In terms of scale, this feels like he was underpaid. Says something about how this company viewed him. Does somebody need to go after boards or stockholders next?

Sound like he wasn't underpaid, the people relying on them for healthcare were underpaid.
