I always thought it was the city,county and state to protect the citizens that live with in. Maybe if some of our leaders would take a pay cut it would help But I think GREED is the most important thing here. And they stated the cost of renting beds is so high they could buy them for a lot less and save money there. Also who is getting a kick back on the rentals???
But whayy do I know, do they think we are all blind??
