Let’S Sue The Charlatans!
As a General step regarding Alzheimer's by MikeD

I have been asked to submit a proposal of a colleague of mine in the practice of law who still persists in trying to do it, my having learned better and quit! He asked me to direct his proposal to as many Alzheimer’s Groups to which I have access.
He follows my Blogs. He read the posting I made two days ago to MY ALZHEIMER’S ARCHIVE OF ARTICLES AND MEMORANDA entitled What’s Wrong with this Picture. His proposal responds to the concerns I raised in it that posting.
Read the proposal on that Blog entitled: SUPERCILIOUS SOLICITATION, or is it? posted yesterday.
Although the proposal may be considered as written with “tongue in cheek” there is a rude kind of irony to it. What I mean is this. There is certainly cause to haul some of these disingenuous activities undertaken supposedly for the folks afflicted by Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) into Court for breach of contract, malfeasance, non-feascance, common law fraud or violation of fiduciary duty. These would all be good legal counts giving cause to legal proceedings for damages before a jury.
Sound screwy and off the wall? Is the AD virus really getting to me? Not really!
Legally suit could be brought against various organizations who under the color of altruism raise money and promote programs for the benefit of doing for Alzheimer’s. These organizations often violate their trust having undertaken a service for people in need and not performing truly in that capacity.
Consider:
How much money is raised by volunteer groups for AD? Who decides the purpose for which it is raised? How much of it goes to the purpose for which it is raised? Who else benefits from the acquisition of the money it raises?
Look at the organizations that provide services. This is discussed with some detail in my 8/13 post on my archive entitled What’s Wrong with this Picture. There seems to be a Cabal of units of Government, large Corporations and movers and shakers in the fields of Health Care Professionals, Leveraging Entrepreneurs, Investment Bankers, Lobbyists, Public Servants and a host of others at the trough gleaning enormous gain off the available public money and charitable funds under the guise of building infrastructure for purpose of providing services for the AD Afflicted.
The profit in these ventures for the initiators, the high level executives and administrators and the investors is astronomical!
An illustration of how the fruits of their work were discussed in detail in my own experience and that of Rose Lamatt in my post on AGING IN PLACE made on 8/13.
So much of the fund raising activity is for finding the cure. This is done at the expense of providing care. The cost of care is prohibitive bordering on confiscatory, but others are “rolling in dough” from the development of products designed purportedly to provide care..
Both private funds raised by volunteer groups and government funds go to researching for a cure. In turn much of the research carried on by the Drug Companies for which the contribution is sought and for which the Drug Companies charge exorbitant non-negotiable costs for their discoveries is done by government funded research facilities.
Funding to find the cure is extensive, success negligible if not illusory. Is it possible to find a cure? Hey I hope it is. I got this disease. But it probably won’t occur before I am in the grave. In the meantime I wonder if after I have paid the enormous amounts for care whether or not there will be anything left for my wife to live on through her remaining years. This is a despicable probability!
Couldn’t more of the funding generated be spent on developing programs for Economy of Care as spend all that is being spent from so many directions down the big black hole of Finding a Cure?
In my ruder more paranoid moments I wonder this. How much of the agenda directed to all of the worker bees raising funds is choreographed as a hidden agenda of the Drug Industry?
After the fall of Wall Street and the Resuscitation of the cadaver it became I wonder too much about hidden agendas of the massive Geo Political Corporate Industrial Cabal running rampant looting all levels of our economy. Could funding for AD be but one more of these?
Under the law when a legal entity, (person, corporation or legally constituted association) undertakes to provide a service for a group knowing the group relies on what they are doing, a high legal duty is placed on the entuty undertaking to act. This follows theories of Contract (Breach and Third Party Beneficiary) Tort (Malfeasance, Non Feascance, Violation of Fiduciary Duty) General Theories of Equity and Abuse of Process when public funds are involved.
In other words they gotta do it right or not at all! If they do it for their own benefit they are at risk of having to pay for their ill gotten gains.
Such lawsuits are onerous, complicated, expensive, and time consuming. Class Action or RICO offer some of the better methods of doing them. The lawyers gain the most by bringing them. The value of there being brought is the cost to the targets if they are in fact acting in their own interests under the color of acting for the benefit of another.
These kinds of law suits can stop the rampant carnage wrought our country under the guise of service performed for gain by those doing it. That is the value of taking the proposal of Mr Doubletongue with a little gravity.
We are seeing the Health Care Debacle being played out in Washington DC, over the media and in the battle zones of Town Halls. When are we as a reasonable people going to say enough of this duplicity, hidden agendas, secret profit, disingenuousness perfidy. Either disband the government or let it do its job of protecting the common folk! This is absolutely nuts watching this ensemble fiddle while everything burns around us!
