BusinessWeek Highlights Insurance Industry Lobbying in Action!

These days, some of the harshest criticism of corporate lobbying comes from The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, and now... BusinessWeek? 

In a cover story published August 6, 2009, BusinessWeek declared: "The Health Insurers Have Already Won." The article highlights how the insurance giant UnitedHealth has influenced "rookie" Senator Mark Warner of Virginia, to fight the public option. It also discusses how UnitedHealth employs The Lewin Group, a corporate consulting firm that is - surprise! - owned  by UnitedHealth, to advance its anti-public option agenda.
