Without taking sides in the Anderson-Morse thing, I have been uncomfortable with the Moffitt deal from the time it was announced. I used to work for a non-profit health care system and I know our members were not asked to fund the equipment for any new facility we built. Nowhere have I read anything about a benefit to the contributors once the facility is completed other than having it here. The POA complained when the plans for a cancer center in Leesburg were announced and was pleased when it was relocated to TV. I don't recall Leesburg residents being asked to fund the equipment for a Leesburg facility.

While no fan of Ritchie, something here just does not seem right. I will watch and see what happens.
