News St. Vincent's Hospital Closing, Famous Poets to Be Born and Die Elsewhere
Posted by Jonny Diamond on Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 10:59 AM
The 160-year-old St. Vincent's was the last fully operating Roman Catholic general hospital in New York, and as of now has 400 in-patient beds in need of a home; elective surgeries are set to end on April 14th. My favorite line from the Times article: "In recent years, [St. Vincent's] management troubles were worsened by the difficult economics of the health care industry." Hoorary for free-market health care!

Sorry, that was meant to be a joke... just me dreaming of a society in which major urban hospitals would be named after hard-living poets...
This is the first step for those money hungry MBA inspired Roman Catholic priests and its hand chosen board of directors to sell a prime piece of real estate (the Roman Catholic Church SUX). Sorry the Roman Catholic Church is such a well operated business.
