How have contributions risen in the last ten years to your charity? Are your books public?

Z, > Their profits have risen 424% in the last ten years Wanna put that in the right context, or do you really think that's a result of profit margins going through the roof? Tenchusatsu

"Sounds pretty evil to me." The "health" insurance companies are evil in the same way the tobacco companies are evil. The more care they can deny, the more money they make, the bigger the executive bonus, the higher the stock price. ALL the "market forces" are BEGGING them to collect the highest premiums while they deny as much care as possible. Why can't everyone see this? Why isn't Obama shouting it from the rooftops? Without a public option, there's NOTHING to make the situation better.
