United Blood Services
Current Blood Prices Much Higher than Gasoline

United Blood Services claims to be working for the good of humanity. However, their purpose for the "service" they provide is to fund the extravagant life-style of a small group in corporate leadership that benefit most from high blood prices. Current blood prices are significantly higher than current gas prices. The difference is that blood is given by well meaning volunteer donors who get no more in exchange than the warm-fuzzies and a T shirt for donating. These donors have no guarantee of blood being provided if ever needed; let along, having their blood they use paid for even though they have donated for many years. Why? Because that would cut into the "profits" necessary to fund the life-style 'Fat Cat' corporate executives and blood center Executive Directors have come to expect.

These 'Fat Cats' are so avarice to continue their life-style that they harass, abuse and constantly threaten employees with loss of job IF they do not produce enough blood. Any failure to perform at their desired level will ultimately end in your termination from the company. If 20/20 or some other news magazine wants to pick up an interesting story on corporate abuse in the not-for-profit world... This is it! I can personally promise that current and former employees of United Blood Services will come out of the wood-work to tell of the harassment and abuse they suffered at the hands of the Fat Cats.

Oh, and about the price of blood:

Each red cell is sold for over $200.00
Each Platelet is sold for over $600.00

And this is before the hospital's add any additional cost they might attach to the blood product.in an emergency situation it is not uncommon to use 20-30 doses of blood. These doses are less than one pint. Do the math and see how much per gallon versus gasoline.

All this results in higher medical cost for us all. The collection, processing and distribution of donated blood needs to be taken over by the US government to prevent private not-for-profit and so called non-profit abuse of this national resource.

A little known secret of this corrupt industry is that United Blood Services sells plasma donated by Americans to the European market. That's right... It is done through the ZLB and again just one more component of the Fat Cat's strategy to get rich off donated blood.

This story is a powder-keg for 20/20 or some other news magazine that likes to expose corporate GREED. First come;first served on the story but for the good of the American people it needs to be told.
