Please, do not allow the American people to believe “the low-income housing” was the cause of this. Rep Kanjorski stated it very well. Lack of communication to the American people can or will not be acceptable in this time of crisis. As complicated and complex as this crisis is, to allow the American people to inform themselves through the ‘mainstream’ media venues vs. the ‘state of the art’ tools that could be used is a BIG MISTAKE. There are better ways in 2009. Mainstream media is not the tool to use to gather the support of the American people.
We must remember that the failing healthcare industry was TOO BIG TO FAIL. The Banks that financed these fraudulent corporations were TOO BIG TO FAIL. Were exceptions made to Healthcare Corporations and Financial Institutions fraudulent behaviors because they were TOO BIG TO FAIL?

LARGEST HEALTH CARE FRAUD CASE IN U.S. HISTORY SETTLED; HCA INVESTIGATION NETS RECORD TOTAL OF $1.7 BILLION
Note: Hospital Corporation of America (HCA) was acquired by Columbia in 1994. Columbia/HCA will pay $71 million to settle a tax dispute with the IRS. The agency had originally sought $276 million in back taxes and interest, in the dispute involving $525 million in stock options deducted by Hospital Corporation of America (HCA). Under the settlement, the IRS will drop charges that HCA, which was acquired by Columbia in 1994, paid unreasonable compensation or golden parachute payments in the form of stock options to more than 100 executives and managers as part of a management-led buyout of HCA in 1989.
