So let's assume you're right and take a step back. Why is capitalism so great in the first place? Because it's the only system known to Man that takes greed and turns it into a force for wealth building that, when coupled with market regulation, is also a force for good. That's why America is the greatest country on Earth. That's why people vote with the feet and move here. It's why South Korea, Japan, and Germany went from destitution to thriving in a generation. So back to your point. If greedy capitalism isn't working in the insurance industry - in other words, greed is NOT being channeled to provide a public good - who's fault is it? The market regulators. Who are they? Congress. You don't reward the people who created the corrupt system in the first place with the whole industry. If Congress can't even keep the greed out of a market they're supposed to regulate what makes you think they'll be too when they own all the shops in the market ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
