You can't win - insurance rates

insurance company. All my insurances going up 15% to 25%. My account advised me that we are now paying 25% of what I make a year on insurance. Hey and I am not even a doctor. I am afraid my fees are going to have to go up.

  • Try not to have a

    good year either. Then they get you w/ the audit. Just got nailed for 7% more on last year's policies.

    Real slick how they take a piece of the action when you have a good year. Just like the tax guys.

    7%

    Try sending out a letter to your customers, asking for 7%, you will get laughed off the face of the earth and called a crook. But if you are an insurance company, that type of behavior is the norm.

    Lets see, lawyers, used car salesmen, and insurance companies.

    My apologizes to the lawyers and the car salesmen.

    Insurance companies in principle

    have to be the world's second oldest profession.

    The first oldest was necessary to give them birth. :)

    i hate to say it folks but things are just going to get worse it takes 2 incomes just to get by now a days.

    and jobs are being shipped over sea's and best of all our kids are going to have to pay for all the tax cuts. we are now enjoying :-) i hope your saying to yourself what tax cut i did not get one :-)

    imagine some of our law makers want to make the tax cuts permanent look at the money we are spending how will we pay for all of it or should i say who will pay for it.

    Good Luck

    Our legislators-

    Are cutting our throats. They are making it easier and easier for US corporations to skip out entirely on pension funds promised to the workers that built a world, and now are expected to retire in poverty, while their CEO's make more money than the combined wealth of 80% of the third world nations. At the same time, US legislators make it okay to openly deal with nations that "employ" slave labor, specifically, China. We sell them vast tonnage of raw material, they turn it back into products that are reintroduced into our economy. (Odd, don't you think, that we refuse to trade with Cuba, because it is a Communist nation, that "threatens" our "National Security", but China is okay.) I think the greatest threat to our National Security is the people we have mistakenly entrusted with our National Security.

    My Two Cents

    What drives me nuts is everyone that complains about china and all the other products made in these other third world countries with all but slave labor but most americans will buy these product because they are cheap.We reap what we sow.Believe me I hate most lawmakers do not care what party they all stink.Most people care about cheap products not quailty made in america items FACT.

    joe sometimes we don't have a choice in what we buy it's whats available if you put a better product on the shelf beside a cheep made product in chine i will always buy the better product that's made in the USA.

    but our us companies are closing up shop and moving to china so they can make more profits and avoid paying taxes.

    trade is our problem if they had fair trade like paying people what we get paid instead of rice we could compete with anyone.

    the trade rules need to be changed. and we should stop supporting slave labor. we cant compete against people that will work for rice.

    thanks
