I would have taken the job and tried to not be the leader in denied claims. Truth be told, I would probably funnel my excess income to single player supporting politicians.
There’s a lot of distance between an executive and those whose lives they impact. It’s probably too easy to forget there are people involved, and just pay attention to the numbers
nah. How exactly can that work with health care? The people are the numbers. They could easily translate a high number of approved claims to a high number of people being helped, but instead, they want a low number of claims being approved.
I disagree with the idea that money corrupts people. I think it’s happening the other way around. The ability to accumulate great quantities of wealth favors people who have no scruples in the first place. It’s why poor people are more charitable. It’s not that they’re closer to needy people. It’s that having a charitable mentality means you will pass on opportunities to get easy wealth if it puts someone else at a disadvantage.

Unless you’re a piece of shit, I imagine that would not last very long before you became disillusioned.
Probably, but I could always kick the lantern over on my way out. I’m already pretty disillusioned from how I was treated in school anyway.
