Agreed.
The hospital should be sold and the district dissolved.
(I say that as the guy that founded it but now realizes that government entities can't run businesses.)

This is moving into another big....but much more clear issue....how we vote. I worked the polls this year to gather more info. The county must spend $1MM per election on staffing, 'volunteers', training sessions, moving posters/binders/supplies/booths/equipment to cover every possible eventuality. A massive carbon bomb as well as a waste of money. And all that for ONE measure. The precinct I worked had 4 people from 6 a.a. till 9 p.m. and we had EIGHT (!) voters show up.
So, if you want to actually help solve one problem with a simple solution, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE write to your state representatives to go to Vote-By-Mail-Only, as Oregon does. They will tell you they're 'studying it' but don't accept that. About 80% of our voters use mail already so the transition would be simple and cost effective. That money could be much better used for schools, roads, fire, almost anything else.
