You may be onto something there.

Tracked like a dumb animal on Dana Brown’s Mutual of Omaha Safari show, only you don’t get caught with a noose on a pole and dragged to the ground to be collared.

The door to this was opened by Obamacare saying “Yeah, you can give people discounts if they track their health”.

Actually, insurance (and the companies that work in that segment) are the opposite of a scam. Think of all of the touchy-feely liberal stuff about sharing, caring and helping your fellow citizen. Private insurance does that. And people enter into the agreements voluntarily and with free market choices.

A big reason that there is a major shortage of over-the-road truck drivers is that all the trucks are required to be equipped with spy equipment now that reports back when the truck exceeds the speed limit or when the driver drives more than a set number of hours per day per week. It reports a lot of other info, too, but the enforced hours limit means the drivers are stuck at a certain income level. They cannot enhance their income by driving longer hours. Well we are all glad that truck drivers are not overtired now but it still deters ambitious hardworking men from becoming truck drivers. I rode with a driver of a NAVL van for a while in the ́80s and we drove 24 hours a day in turns. Can't do that any more.

The earlier articles said they would have lower rates for those who adopted healthier life styles and I was fine with that - this is beyond the pale.
