I was reading the L H Leader op ed piece by Jim Bunning.  I was going to give him a pass about being the water carrier for the KHA (link is to the member hospitals lots of very profitable members) because he is retiring.  I then changed my mind.  I assumed the reason he was doing it was because they paid him to do it.  I was correct.      His biggest donors are listed on this page.  The 2 largest industries to give to Jim are the insurance and health professionals.  Senator Bunning, I am glad you are retiring.  Thank you for your service but thank you more for retiring.

 The idea that very large profitable hospitals are not going to make as much profit over the next 10 years does not bother me at all.  If the health care reform is going to lower the profits for the hospitals then by definition it means that health care costs will go down.  I know there is logical fallacy here but its the KHA fallacy and not mine so I will let them make the argument.
