Letter to the editor: Capitalistic priorities


To the editor:

You've seen the headlines: Wall Street Firms Get H1N1 Flu Vaccine Before Hospitals and Doctors.

That's correct.

The same investment corporations and banks that brought you the financial crisis get a separate shipment of vaccine even before the hospitals and doctors offices. The top dogs of capitalism get the vaccine before children who are at risk and medically challenged.

Any problems with capitalism?
