1. Growing middle class in China- Yeah right. Lemme figure this out. 9 cents an hour- and China has a booming middle class and now can pay Walmart prices at par with the US? Turnip truck anyone? 2. The War on Terror. So if people are so very very afraid- insurance companies would have a field day - we are all scared as shit- right? Insurance for cell phones- extended warranties- replacement insurance on house and car- even insurance against libel and slander. I mean the world is an ever do dangerous place - right? We would have super duper insurance- and get extended warranty on socks- and envelopes- the cable would sell the everything package- because what if I could not see my show? Cars would have insurance against being dirty. Kids would be insured against being bratty- I mean- the world is a danger zone- right? Just this morning- I wondered if I should up my post insurance on this post..surely your policy would cover un-insured and under insured posts, right? The world is frightfully terroristic- right? Looking above- I see I should have bought spelling insurance- and- even more profound- coffee on keyboard insurance. So- why then did we bail out AIG? There are terrorists everywhere- our planet is in peril. TSA insurance could ensure a proper groping- and a million $ limit for bodily damage. Flight insurance could have a TSA clause. UPS insurance- could have an ID section- that in the event someone mails with out a drivers license that the package wont blow up. Consider that insurance does not cover- civil unrest, acts or war and the like. Exclusions gone wild. Maybe since we are so scared I could buy exclusion insurance? All of it- should be automatically deducted from my account. Assuming the account is insured. At the old board- we could sell Roger insurance! HA. No that you read my post- how did you ever get thru it unharmed? Al caida is jealous of our way of life! They are! They are! Wink wink. I should get horoscope insurance- in case it is wrong... and weather insurance. and how about those rotten Chinese? We will need Confucius insurance too. So how much money did we send to American Insurance Group? (AIG) and more importantly- was it amply and completely insured? If I can insure against an accident- can I also insure that I will have an accident? (ask Sadam?) Can I insure that my tax bill wont increase? How about food and utilities? As I eat- these bad noodles- I cringe that I did not get noodle insurance! Are you still reading this? We all ALL in imminent danger! We are all going to die- unless the government saves us. Is there a policy I can buy - that covers if someone uses a cell phone in church? How about insurance against "gotcha" business practices? Or mega corporations RICO RICO-land? And I want a policy - that there will be no more Czars, and one that pays everytime I have to hear phrases like- global warming, homeland, FCC, FDA, IRS, Fed, and "historical"? Pencil me in for Harvard insurance and damages. Cogently-- will Goldman Sachs write such policies? If we are in so much danger- then insurance would be flying off the shelf. We would be desperate to have it all- and even get extra. In the casino of life- insurance is the be all and the end all. Right? (...did I need 'agree with me' insurance?) ...all the world is a stage. break a leg.
