In 1987, at age 34, he co-founded Columbia Hospital Corporation with two business partners; this merged with Hospital Corporation of America in 1989 to form Columbia/HCA and eventually became the largest private for-profit health care company in the U.S.[citation needed]
He resigned as Chief Executive of Columbia/HCA in 1997 amid a controversy over the company's business and Medicare billing practices; the company ultimately admitted to fourteen felonies and agreed to pay the federal government over $600 million, which was the largest fraud settlement in US history. Scott was not implicated and no charges were raised against him personally.
And the rest of the healthcare CEO scum ripping off the public.

Get rid of Medicaid and nobody will be able to rip it off. Why did the Medicaid administrators and bureaucrats who were supposed to watch this shit get nothing? What the fuck are we paying them for? Idiots

That is a lie. There is nothing single payer about the millions and millions of people who will be forced to pay. How's the VA doing? Medicaid is stupid and sucks and you want the government to be more in charge? It is a serious lack of intellect that would lead anybody but a total welfare leech to advocate for government health care. They suck at it as has been demonstrated time and time again.

It is worth reiterating that the U.S. spends far more than any other country per capita on healthcare and does very poorly on indicators of overall health. Clearly our system could be much better (to put it mildly), and a successful model that much of the world uses is the single payer system.

No level of healthcare will help fat fucks who binge eat hamburgers and bacon all day. The US spends a lot on healthcare at least partially because Americans live unhealthy lifestyles.

Reappropriating funds from capitalist thieves though is perfectly honest.
See, it's all about perspective.

Oh, you mean the same money used to blow people up thousands of miles away despite public disapproval? You mean the same money used to pay for the well being of people outside the US?
Cause if money used by the feds toward social programs is theft, than all the money used by government is theft.

Our cancer survival rates trash Britain's. Our health care system drives innovation that gets exported to freebooter nations. Single payer is a complete misnomer and a lie. Millions of taxpayers support the system and the bums free ride.

Blowing those fucks up is a social benefit the whole world takes advantage of. The fact that the cunts in Europe and Canada don't pay their share is a shame on them. Every fuckng European should suck an American cock that they aren't speaking Russian.
