effectively $500 a week

Isn't this the same reason, insurance paying, that a hospital bed to just
lay there and die is $400/day and every doctor in the building comes by
to "say hi" and charges $250 every time he pokes his head in the door and
smiles at you. (Every doctor in Orangeburg, SC, pulled this crap on my
father who was dying at Orangeburg Regional Medical Center, a profit
center for the medical profession to be sure.

It's how doctors afford yachts, waterfront mansions, fancy cars, cruises
to exotic places....

I call it "victimization". You're in a position of helplessness and
"they", be they doctors or lawyers or boatyards or tradesmen you are
forced by circumstances to hire quickly to fix something threatening your
home....feeding at the insurance and victims' tits, sucking as hard as
they can for as long as they can milk it.

CEOs do the same thing to the stockholders....sucking as hard as they can
on the company's tit, milking it for all they can get, until they either
get fired and move on to the next board meeting or drive the company,
like Enron, into bankruptcy.

It's the American way! This boatyard is sucking on it just as hard as
any of the rest of the milksuckers.....like bankers.

to grab as much for themselves as possible.
Where's the long term planning? If the Big 3 American car manufacturers are
doing do badly, why are their CEOs hauling in so much money?
The whole system is rotten and our children will pay for it.
