A new report in the American Journal of Public Health says that insurers such as Prudential Financial, Northwest Mutual and Massachusetts Mutual own $1.9 billion worth of stock in fast-food companies like McDonald’s, Pizza Hut and Jack in the Box. The author of the study, Dr. Wesley Boyd of Harvard Medical School, finds these investments to be morally repugnant. Why? Because the insurance industry is supposed to be concerned about people's health and well-being, but apparently is more interested in making a quick buck.
Keep America Fat and Unhealthy. So they can make a fast buck. That's what it's all about.
