From the article:

Witty added that Thompson was "never content with the status quo" and praised the CEO for advocating for ideas that "were aimed at making health care more affordable, more transparent, more intuitive, more compassionate — and more human."

This is a complete lie

I love how they’re trying to paint him as a working class hero (see the cringe NYT opinion piece as an example) when he’s a class traitor who screwed over other working class people to enrich himself.
