A Tale of Two Criminals - General Motors and Peanut Corporation of America

ALBANY, Ga. (AP Story) — A former peanut company executive was sentenced Monday to 28 years in prison for his role in a deadly salmonella outbreak, the stiffest punishment ever handed out to a producer in a food borne illness case.

The outbreak in 2008 and 2009 was blamed for nine deaths and sickened hundreds more, and triggered one of the largest food recalls in U.S. history.

Meanwhile, back in WASHINGTON (NYT Story) — Saying that safety practices at General Motors were “broken,” federal regulators on Friday imposed the biggest punishment they could on the automaker and condemned it over its failure to promptly report a defect that G.M. has linked to 13 deaths.

G.M. will pay a $35 million penalty — the maximum allowed and the largest ever imposed on an automaker — and will be required to make wide-ranging changes to its safety practices that will be supervised by the government, another first for an automaker.

“What G.M. did was break the law,” Anthony Foxx, the secretary of transportation, said at a news conference.

In the GM case, it was revealed that certain executives were aware of the safety problem but chose to remain silent. Yet nobody will be criminally prosecuted. Nobody goes to jail.

New house budget repeals Obamacare, partially privatizes Medicare

by Robert Lowes (Medscape)

Following a familiar script, House Republicans today introduced a budget bill for fiscal 2016 that would repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA), partially privatize Medicare, turn Medicaid into a block-grant program for states, and produce a $13 billion budget surplus in 2024.

The script dates back to 2011, when the House Budget Committee, then chaired by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI), first proposed this package of measures. Even if the House and Senate, both controlled by the GOP, were to approve them, President Barack Obama would likely use his veto pen.

Under the plan released today by the House Budget Committee, Medicare would shift to a "premium support" model beginning in 2024 for new enrollees — in other words, Americans born in 1959 and thereafter. Seniors would choose between traditional Medicare or a private health plan, with the
