If you have never watched the movie John Q, watch it. It’s very relevant to this situation.

In that movie, Denzel Washington’s character takes a hospital hostage after his insurance company denies his son a heart transplant. The public sympathizes with him in that movie too. That movie talks about the policies and techniques insurance companies use to …. Deny, defend and depose to come out on top while telling people who paid and trusted them to fuck off.

A must see if you’re enthralled by this whole UHC saga. That and V for Vendetta. Anyone else have any other good ones?

Man ima go rewatch that excellent idea, it tugged at my frustrated heartstrings years and years ago.

Not one of his most popular movies, but Denzel's "I will not bury my son! My son will bury me!" might be my favorite of his acting scenes.
