Well, Julius Ceaser's father in law was no help to him at the end.

 

The law is not static, and has changed many times in the history of this

country.

 

While it is the law, I agree it doesn't listen to the lamentations of

individuals.

 

I'm sure that we will always have insurance companies. They exist within the

Medicare system too.

 

I don't believe that investors necessarily need insurance companies in which to

invest.

There is so much out there in which to invest, I'm sure they'd find something.

 

Even with the insurance companies, they are still using leeches for certain

things today.

Immortality exists!

It's called knowledge!

 

Just because something isn't seen

doesn't mean it's not there<>
