Look what got Buried in the NYT's

This story presents the findings of a recent internal investigation by the Department of Health and Human Services. According to the investigation, "the administrator of Medicare, Thomas A. Scully, issued the threat to Richard S. Foster while lawmakers were considering huge changes in the program last year. As a result, Mr. Foster's cost estimate did not become known until after the legislation was enacted". And if that's not enough, "Mr. Scully, who resigned in December, in part to become a lobbyist for health care companies...". I'm absolutely shocked that the policy in question is largely seen as a giant give-away to drug and insurance companies. I mean seeing as how this guy is...oh, wait, it actually says that he left to become a lobbyist for health care companies. I guess it's not that shocking then.
You know, this sort of corruption is something that only happened in Mexico and stuff. This sucks!
