Heads the insurance company wins; tails you lose

For the past decade, I have done a lot of research on organized crime, public corruption and hate groups. It's my opinion that understanding organized crime, public corruption and hate groups and how they operate is a prerequisite to understanding politics in Chester County. To understand politics or try to run for office in Chester County without basic knowledge of local organized crime, local public corruption and local hate groups is to fumble in the dark.

It gives me a certain viewpoint.

I see similarities between racketeering and medical insurance companies. The private health insurance model is to collect money from a lot of people through their employers. Their customers are told the insurance company will pay for medical care when they are ill. The insurance companies cover their customers if they catch cold. If they have a really costly illness the insurance company will do everything possible to get out of holding up their end of the contract.

What usually happens in a really devastating illness is the patient or rather, the victim of the insurance company’s con-game, can no longer work. When that person can no longer work he or she looses not just a job but also the insurance company’s promise to pay for an illness, That is the business model of medical insurance companies.

Heads the medical insurance company wins’ tails you, the target of their con- game, lose. Health insurance is an organized moneymaking system that would fit into the Mafia’s business system.
