City should thank its lucky stars that the formerly non profit owned Worc Medical center was bought out by a for profit company a few years ago. Those gosh darn money grubbing capitalists are giving teh city 4,200,000 reasons to be happy vs. ZERO reasons for the previous non profit, non tax paying owners who I think was St V's Hospital(?).
