Yet more corruption in healthcare. And these are the 'fastards' that are fighting reform. If the allegations prove true, they ought to forfeit their earnings for the last 15 years and never be allowed to make more than $50,000 a year for the rest of their lives! Sons of you-know-whats! >:( Let them try living like the people they're ripping off.
