UnitedHealth Group's CEO eulogized his slain colleague, Brian Thompson, in a New York Times op-ed. Thompson's shooting sparked a nationwide debate about the state of the health insurance industry. The head of UnitedHealth Group, the parent company of UnitedHealthcare, is responding to the "vitriol" that's been lodged — both on- and offline — against the health insurance industry and its workers. He then condemned the mounting rhetoric that he said has glorified violence against health insurance workers. Others criticized the for-profit health insurance system as a whole, with some acknowledging that businesses are meant to make a profit and others advocating for nonprofit healthcare.
