If you're going to quote that you should quote the rest of it:

They're not begging for sympathy, they go on to talk about the effect this act will have on the health insurance companies, which is what we all want to see.

I was imagining what a meeting of executives would be like in the wake of this, and I can just see them continuing to follow the almighty dollar, because that is their one true incentive that all others lead to. Anybody who proposed taking a hit to revenue to be more moral would be fired by the board.
