And he should be ashamed of himself.
In my previous job I was coerced by my employer to get involved in writing a grant for some idiotic program by a socialist pediatrician (that is until it comes to fee reimbursement). The politics involved in getting it accepted were unbelievable. All the way up to a support letter from Duct Tape Concannon. Bottom line, they wouldn't approve the grant unless we collected data supporting single payer health.
"This grant from The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) funded the Joseph L. Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University to hold the National Conference on Children and Society to assess the prospects for achieving universal health coverage for children in the United States. Planned in the wake of the failure of President Bill Clinton's health care plan, "First Steps for Children: Strategies for Universal Health Insurance for the Nation's Youth" sought to explore the social and political conditions necessary to enact legislation addressing health care coverage for children. The conference, held October 3-4, 1996, at Columbia University, drew 64 attendees plus 22 panelists and presenters. In total, 53 organizations were represented. Conference organizers commissioned 10 papers for presentation:"

Do a google search for RWJ and universal health coverage. They are the major supporters of the failing plan.
RWJ also funds gun control non profits under the false pretensive of child injury.
RWJ also funded the study on college binge drinking
I could keep going, but a good summary is RWJ foundation is the cash cow for liberal non profits promoting the nanny state.
