How on earth are the wall str money guys gonna get their PROFIT back without deep cuts ?
I am also astonished that changes in the CEO’s salary are not mentioned – typically, for profits have huge CEO salarys (although the non profit sector is doing its best here [sarcasm])

It would be nice if someone from HCFA explained this.

Let’s make sure this does not become “Crueltus” takeover. Thanks for the well written summary.
