(32,324 posts)Rahm Emanuel and Liz Fowler.
They spent the summer of 2009 meeting with insurance and pharmaceutical industry CEO's, sometimes in the WH basement and sometimes at offices down the street fromt he WH.
In return for their hard work, Emanuel will never have to worry about campaign contributions to run for any office he wants, and currently he is the mayor of Chicago.
And Fowler was awarded a plum and cushy spot inside WellPoint Insurance as soon as Congress and the President got the 2,000 page travesty passed and signed.
I wish I could be optimistic that some day soon, we will have ourselves some real health care reform, but with the insurance industry now having even more money than before, so it can buy even more Congressional puppets,. I am not holding my breath.
