The shamed founder of Conservatives for Patients' Rights -- another one of those mis-named organizations -- has decided to run for governor of Florida. I think it's time his friends -- or the voters -- host an intervention.
It is very likely that Rick Scott will be the next Governor of Florida. The Democratic Party and the press could stage an intervention but it is unlikely from past performance.
This guy is not subject to the normal human emotion of shame, so that is no help here.
If he is elected it will mean the further ruin of the State of Florida as he ruined Columbia Health Care for its investors and workers.
The Good Death: An Exploration of Dying in America will be published by Beacon Press in February 2016.
I'm a writer (and hospice volunteer) living in Red Hook, Brooklyn, and writing primarily about the nexus of death and religion for publications like Guernica magazine (where I'm a contributing nonfiction editor), Harvard Divinity Bulletin, Bookforum, The Baffler, The Guardian, and The New York Times.
I am a Visiting Scholar at The Center for Religion and Media, NYU, and a contributing editor at The Revealer, the Center's publication (where I was editor until June 2013). I write the monthly column, "The Patient Body."
