What part of almost being in a depression does Whidbey General Hospital not understand? Some folks are having a hard time finding gas money to get to work let alone the 34 cents per thousand the hospital wanted to keep up with the Joneses.

Interesting, isn’t it, that all of a sudden some big company from back east wants to buy out WGH just as WGH has a $50 million bond vote to enlarge sleeping quarters? I see it as more of a threat to get the votes than a reality.
