The Socialist State of Massachusetts

By Duane Lester • Jul 19th, 2007

Another Democrat who hates capitalism:

“We have concerns about whether the market in Massachusetts is prepared for rates to be set by competitive pricing at this time,” Coakley said, invoking the Royal “We.”

What is she talking about? In Massachusetts, the better drivers pay more in insurance premiums to help subsidize the high premiums bad drivers have. Essentially, good drivers are being punished for the behavior of bad drivers. And Attorney General Martha Coakley is afraid of changing this system because someone might get “hurt”:

“We must make sure consumers will not be harmed,” she says.

Must we?

Hey, your majesty - every good driver is being “harmed” already. We’re getting shafted by the lack of competition, and by a system that punishes good drivers and rewards bad drivers.

Testify, brother.  Preach the truth.

Full Story.
