28. I blame health insurance companies

Which includes every single employee from the janitor to the CEO.
Guess what? When they were arresting people that worked at the concentration camps, it didn't matter if you were a just a guard or a secretary, you still participated in the murder of millions.

I don't see it any different here. You work for an organization that refused to pay for the care of my child. It wasn't the CEO I was talking with but customer service person or whoever they were that told me the claim was denied and that was never going to change.
They don't get absolved from guilt just because they are a low level worker. They still directly benefit from that system.
