Brittney Spears, Mass Auto Insurance, and Liberal Democrats
Massachusetts politicians really need remedial economics classes. As an example, look at this statement from Attorney General Martha Coakley about opening the state’s regulated auto insurance market to free market competition:
“At this stage, it is too early to make a determination about whether managed competition will advantage or disadvantage consumers,” Coakley said in a statement.
Is it really that hard to figure out? Drivers with clean records and good risk profiles would benefit immensely as insurers would offer the best rates possible to retain them. Drivers with poor records and riskier profiles would pay more as insurers would reasonably demand a premium for carrying those policies.
It’s not rocket science. And by the way, that’s how it should work. The people who obey the law and don’t drive like maniacs should pay less. The unsafe drivers should pay more as an incentive to make the roadways safer for everyone. However, the concept of personal responsibility is to liberal Democrats as responsible parenthood is to Brittney Spears. The two just never meet.

We love ya, OP! This is as plain as the noses on our faces to all here in our sanctuary e-community and trying to understand the others who would join the conga line to Beacon Hill harkens to the same 60’s philosophy that the masses of ubiquitous non-conformists who wear denim threads are expressing their individualism.
We’re grown-ups, now! For all the outrage and social indignation of the establishment that boomers railed against all those years ago, the time for personal reconcilliation has been at hand for quite some time now. Words have come home to roost and the reasons for social involvement sit at our Thanksgiving tables. Non-conformity? We skipper this fleet of boats and we can’t get past genuflecting the Golden Dome?
Individuals are capable of their inner compass which knows where they’re going because they know where they’ve been.
