Oh! So that’s what Joseph Mengele did wrong! He was making money on his experiments! \needless-sarcasm-end-tag

If the amended it, would that no mean that there was an earlier agreement that they did in fact make which was profitable?

Fifty-three million dead babies can't be a bad thing, is it? After all, it is obvious nobody is making money off of this.

Hey, they are just doing all this as a public service - sort of like Mother Teresa's orphanages - and living spartanly off donations from well-wishers. Probably all those abortion doctors, nurses, and clinic managers are barely surviving off food stamps and food pantries.

“non-profits” are the biggest scam going.

It’s a non-profit that brings in over a billion dollars a year.

http://cnsnews.com/news/article/barbara-boland/planned-parenthood-got-5406-million-government-grants-fy-2013

“Planned Parenthood’s net revenue increased 5% to total of $1.21 billion in its organizational fiscal year ending on June 30, 2013, according to its new Annual Report 2012-2013, and about 45% of that revenue—$540.6 million—was provided by taxpayer-funded government health services grants.”

It’s just like the NFL which is classified as a non-profit trade association which makes about 10 billion dollars a year.

Yes but never underestimate the power and mind changing qualities of a well worn 2X4 between the eyes. ;)

Running a brothel as a low bid contract job isn’t exactly the road to riches. Ever see the whores there?

I will withhold excitement. I do not remotely trust the same people that ALLOWED this mess to FIX this mess.

I hope they do but I’ll go with verify before trust when the GOP is involved.

Congress should defund Planned Parenthood and then resign in abject shame for having funded it in the first place and for allowing this bloody mass murder of innocents to continue.

Planned Parenthood Defends Selling Body Parts of Aborted Babies: “But We’re Not Making a Profit”

Buchwald v. Paramount (1990) 1990 Cal. App. LEXIS 634, was a breach of contract lawsuit filed and decided in California in which humorist and writer Art Buchwald alleged that Paramount Pictures stole his script idea and turned it into the 1988 movie Coming to America. Buchwald won the lawsuit and was awarded damages, and then accepted a settlement from Paramount before any appeal took place.

The decision was important mainly for the court's determination in the damages phase of the trial that Paramount used "unconscionable" means of determining how much to pay authors, which is widely called "Hollywood Accounting." Paramount claimed, and provided accounting evidence to support the claim, that despite the movie's $288 million in revenues, it had earned no net profit, according to the definition of "net profit" in Buchwald's contract, and hence Buchwald was owed nothing.

Was Mengele in it for profit or for his idea of “research?” Apparently it was research... in the view of Planned Parenthood then, Mengele was Mr. Ethical.

Yes. But Congress isn’t the actual problem. They are merely ordinary criminals. It could have been any and every mix of them for the last 30 years. The problem, as that Euro writer once said of Obama, isn’t the GOP/congress per se. It’s the people that would elect such criminals to begin with.

And I would add, do so calling it a lesser evil.

A liberal will justify anything as long as they get what they want. Always.
