Ethics for Sale
If you missed the movie The Constant Gardener and need your fix of moral outrage, you don't have to go to Africa to find it. Just look instead at the December cover story in Bloomberg Markets about America's largest clinical testing center. Managed by a company called SFBC International, according to Bloomberg, the 675-bed Miami testing center has been recruiting undocumented Latino immigrants desperate for money, housing them in a converted Holiday Inn, and paying them to take untested drugs in studies overseen by an unlicensed medical director whose degree comes from an offshore medical school in the Caribbean. http://www.slate.com/id/2132187/

1. Hey, I was offered an HMO/Medicare thing something just like that
recently. What's up with that, anyway?

Just kidding, but the Caribbean sounds good about now.
