I'm very close to this as well.

My coworker needed a heart implant that his doctor ordered but the fucking insurance company (read: NOT A FUCKING DOCTOR) says he didn't have a stroke yet so he doesn't qualify...

They literally fucking said "he needs to be almost dead or possibly already dead and then we'll consider it."

I want to burn that fucking place to the ground.

Insurance companies are the worst, I can't believe that they're even a thing. You give them money just in case you need some in an emergency, and they do their very best not to give you anything. The entire business model is: "You give us money, and we keep it".

Make him win a bet and claim it was a stroke of luck. Now that the conditions are met get him the transplant.

Yeah, we cannot let these random doctors, with decades of training, waste our share holders' generational wealth on some random person; just because said person might die. LOL, that would be ridiculous.

This is not a charity, because our lobbyist and investors worked very hard to eliminate all the charitable alternative, WITH YOUR MONEY BTW, LOL.

Honestly, I don't even know if this is /s... Because this is exactly what is currently happening...
