Profit or not for profit is another issue entirely. Both kinds of hospitals take people without insurance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charity_care

That is what Rubicon taught me is a red herring. A change of subject in the face of a serious issue.

What do you think is the answer here? The answer to how we should handle the risk of Ebola spreading? What would you do if you had the power to do it?
