    We need to normalize during job interviews, asking who the insurance provider is and basing our personal decisions on whether we move forward with that company or not, at least in part on that.

    I know for my future I will not be considering roles with a company who uses United their subsidiaries or their partners.

      Or, like many other countries, separate companies and health insurance providers.

      Where I live everybody has their own health insurance and companies have nothing to do with it. Some fancier companies give extra health insurance or offer it as extra to your wage. Like a company phone or car. But normal health insurance is already good enough in quality and price.

      Having to think about what health insurance company a possible employer uses sounds so over the top capitalistic to me.

        How about we normalize the government doing its job and providing essential services to citizens without having a middleman in the way putting profit above people’s lives
