WBJ Talk Back In The March 15, 2010 Issue
“The insurance industry claims they are just passing on the rising cost of health services being rendered. Maybe that is so, but let’s see itemized invoicing and cost figures from all involved. We should know what the hospitals are actually charging for every procedure and every aspirin tablet.”
Davideo on a WBJ Daily Report covering business testimony on the impact of rising health insurance premiums.
“When I was a girl I pulled a wagon behind me as I walked from door to door delivering my Girl Scout cookies. This annual ritual helped teach me the basics of running a successful business. The two lessons that stayed with me were that all business income is not personal profit (I had to turn in all my money) and that if I eat my own merchandise then I’m obliged to pay for it!”
Laura Foley on a Worcester Business Journal story that looked at what business people can learn from Girl Scouts.
“Can anyone imagine this group making such extraordinary demands if a different economic development initiative was being proposed for the region? Do you think these yahoos would be sending legislators letters clamoring for an independent study after several studies have already been done? Of course not. This is about narrow-minded, rather unsophisticated people wanting to dictate others’ morals.”
TheVanBurenBoys on a letter from MetroWest planning officials to state legislators asking for further research into the local impact of casino gambling.
