‘Profit’ is not a bad word
Updated: Mar 21, 2019 11:14 AM
Dear Sir,
In this era of reducing medical costs, the recent announcement of a new facility makes me wonder how such costs can be reduced.
Financing of medical, dental or optical operations by non-medical persons should not be allowed because most investors look at the bottom line. “Profit” is not a bad word and everyone in business looks to make a profit.
I am thinking of setting up a law firm and employing lawyers charging more than $600 an hour, taking 20 per cent.
