This Lewis jerk who has an insurance empire up here in Mayfield Heights, Ohio, also donated (with much media hooplah) $10 million to Planned Murderhood last year. Kinda' interesting that the fool is in favor of murdering 1.5 million potential customers every year. Not too sure how that consists of a good "business" decision.
He's a wealthy creep. Any time I get a call from Progressive, I hang up after letting them have it.

To feel important ? Pardon me, but a guy who owns a billion dollars and who bosses over a hundred thousand people must be knowing that already.
Maybe they want to make sure that no one else becomes as rich as them, by supporting laziness in people (communism/socialism) ?

They can have power if they support conservatives too, as the 2004 poll showed. Infact, in many parts of the south its impossible to have "progressive" links and win a race.

"Lewis was arrested (in New Zealand) and admitted to three charges of importing drugs after customs officers found two ounces of hashish and 1.7 ounces of marijuana in his luggage. New Zealand Judge David Harvey dropped the charges and invited Lewis to watch the challenger rounds for the America's Cup yacht race while in New Zealand and to "enjoy the fresh air."

Its about money. As the projected profits of insurance companies is based on a percentage, a rise in insurance prices because of health care and its legal costs makes them more money.
I believe some insurance companies LOVE attorneys.

But ACLU is..
All communists/socialists are typical ACLU sympathizers..
That means, if you are a commie the best bet for you to appear "politically correct" is by obtaining an ACLU membership card.

What about George Soros then ? I thought he was an investor and had nothing to do with insurance.

They're rich beyond taxes hurting them. They want that neighborhood to stay exclusive too.

I think more than a few of them get some sort of messiah complex too. They start believing God chose them to help the people or some such rot. I read an interview with Buffett, also a noted left-wingnut, and he made it sound like wealth accumulation meant he had a responsibility to better people in spite of themeselves.

Lewis isn't a bad guy, he just wants pot to be legal. Considering where he's gotten in his life while smoking metric tons of it, he probably has a point.
Soros, on the other hand, is a hemmorhoid.
