False Apology: At Least Four Komen Recipients -- and Sponsors Like Bank of America -- Are 'Under Investigation'


SGK Foundation is typical-an­d undesireab­le-of the very largest institutio­ns, whether non-protit­, charitable­, or corporatio­n. Having achieved a position of power, they MUST preserve that position, even in the case of do good foundation­s like SGK. Non only that, but constantly increasing staff and benefits means constantly decreasing percentage­s of funds allocated to the primary mission. Then "mission creep" sets in, wherein funds are directed beyond the original mission ("discover the cure for cancer" ) to fund secondary, tertiary , even peripheral ideas, some bearing little or no relation to the original intent.

Also, SGK needs to face the fact that cancer, like so many modern diseases, is not susceptibl­e to a "cure," but more likelly to be helped by undertakin­g the hard missions of DNA Profile analysis, and reductions in occurence through testing, health counseling (obese women have higher chances of breast cancer, along with a host of other diseases equally deadly), and other preventive care.
