Nothing surprises me anymore, not when it involves big companies like Walmart.
You get complacent and stupid things happen. When people are involved, it's never surprising.

The Chamber of Commerce spent $86 million to attack health care reform. It backed candidates and spent $33 million on anti reform ads acting as a cover for the insurance industry posing as a friend of reform while outsourcing suspicion and criticism that stampeded public opposition. The Chamber and insurance company campaign to kill healthcare reform may kill us or bankrupt us and those we love.
How long do we have to endure the conspiracies between insurance companies, the Chamber and allies in Congress?
"Deadly Spin" by Wendell Potter is an indictment of how corporate PR is damaging our healthcare system and deceiving Americans.
Have you read A Brave New World? Or are you a sheep and really believe that the government is out for your best interests,smokers make an easy target because it is not healthy so no one really objects to putting a tax on it, believing it is for everyone's good.
You sir expressed MY feelings extremely well.... wouldn't change a thing. However, let us embrace Mr. Potter for two reasons.
#1 He seems sincere and the only way to tell a complicated story in detail is to write a book. He gave up alot to step forward, we shouldn't begrudge him earning a living from book proceeds.
#2 If we shoot the whistleblowers, there will be no more whistleblowers.
His information is invaluable and i believe he turned for the right reasons, conscience. In many ways, he's a victim of circumstance. Whatever the case, America needs hundreds of Wendell Potters to turn this ship around.
BTW, I'd love to get your critique of my idea at PoliticalFinanceReform.org. just click on contact....
