Insurance cos. are not allowed to "play dumb".
Think about what insurance companies do:
1) compute required actuarials on current liability -- very accurate. Required by law
The government does not do this. Prefers to "play dumb"
That's the point.
Easy to do. In fact already being done, without doubt.
No such figures are published or used in the debate because it is
not in the interests of politicians. It must be demanded
by citizens in torchlight parade march on Washington.
2) make future estimates on future number of clients, sales growth
In the gov't case: birth rate, immigration, job growth
inflation/deflation, etc etc.
Not the issue here -- must be estimated but must not be
used to make excuses for not doing the least amount
of accountability, as required by insurance cos.
Getting the least amount of accountability is like pulling teeth, simply because the Beltway crowd pretends not to understand.
With Junior in titular power, the "playing dumb" approach is becoming SOP, and the media are buying it.
Junior can get away with it, by taking no questions etc.
For others with normal intelligence there is no excuse.
Amazing. |
