In law and economics, Insurance is a type of risk administration which is basically used to hedge against the chance of a squad loss.

The Illinois Funeral Directors Association has $190 Million in Life Insurance Policies on 3oo Key Guys in the State of Illinois.

One company that the IFDA asked to be the trustee told the IFDA to cash in the policies The IFDA refused.

As far as I understand, the money is still in those life insurance policies. The IFDA paid out funds as they took on new policies. Thus the alleged Ponzi Scheme.

Merrill Lynch Representatives are also named in the Lawsuit.

Aflac is not health insurance. It is income loss insurance. It partially replaces income lost when you can't work. Medical savings accounts are specifically designed to be accompanied by major medical insurance.

How would the financial incentives for good care be any different with a single payer. As costs rise, the payer will ration care to keep the system solvent. The only real difference is that the insured people have nowhere else to go for insurance.

Having a choice to find the plan that screws you the least is better than being unable to leave the plan that screws you the most.

American culture does value choices. That's the beauty of capitalism. It provides choices. Only through consume choice is it possible to punish suppliers who aren't doing the job and reward those who are.

American culture also tends to distrust centralized power, especially government power. In a single payer plan, government has all the power.

Craig Williams is also, in my estimation, a true conservative and an honest one in that he has openly announced that he will put social issues on the back burner for the “fiscal emergency.”

To me that's why I could never support him. Expect this to be the common line that Republicans will give this year. Conservatives who care about social issues, sit down and SHUT UP.

Isn't that exactly what we got from the Republican Congress? In the end they didn't do that good on fiscal issues as well.

I see social issues as being the major cause of the "fiscal emergency". One who won't fight for social issues will not deliver on the fiscal ones either.

Social Issues FIRST. When they are taken care of the fiscal issues will work themselves out.

This is supposed to be a very Republican year so why waste it on a guy who is going to ignore social issues which to me seem to be the more pressing ones.

Sorry, if Williams wins I am voting Murray.]]>
