#8  Come on down to Bob's Baby Boomers. Our prices can't be beat - there's still some life and SSAN checks in these older models and you get them a bargain rates.

So come down!!!

#7  One council has boasted of reducing care costs by almost a fifth using the system.


Here, they reduce waiting lists at the VA on the same basis of cost savings. The bottom line metric for bureaucrats for their bonuses and promotions. Quality of care is always somewhat murky and thus less measurable for those HR rewards.
