The insurance companies add absolutely nothing to the equation of

What insurance does is create a target rich environment for lawyers.
Between the two of them you are right, it is a huge drag on the
economy. We would actually be better off without any insurance at all
but then people would have to plan for their own futures and their own

It's not all about poor planning. Few people can afford to deal with
