Or people who actually understand economics and that the perverse incentives in the healthcare system are responsible, not the left wing bogeyman "greedy CEOs" who quite frankly are just playing constrained by the rules that we created for them and we the people voted for decade after decade.

Did you expect the CEO to run the company like a charity or something? Why don't you think doctors should be the targets couldn't they perform their services for free instead of charging vulnerable people millions by the same logic?

and that the perverse incentives in the healthcare system are responsible,

Sure, but the government is squarely in the pocket of these health care behemoths.

They not only spend obscene amounts of money lobbying, but many representatives straight up just vote the way the biggest insurer/pharma company in their state tells them to in order to appease them.

These companies are pulling way more strings than is acceptable in a free market. They shouldn't get to decide the rules that relate their industry. Many of the perverse incentives are their own doing.

If the market is not free, that’s on government for not doing its job. Donald Trump famously said that he could fix the system because he used it to his benefit for years.
