Re: OT: Apophis is going to kill us all
Here in British Columbia we have a government-run vehicle insurance system. And a law requiring that you MUST have insurance through them and no one else is allowed to sell vehicle insurance in the province.
Now, normally, I am dead set against such socialist systems and am all for when an industry is privatized. Though I do have to say one thing about a public insurance company:
In theory, profit is NOT their bottom line, being a government agency (even though ICBC has a several BILLION dollar stockpile). When I did have a claim (rolled my car in a snow storm) I had my payout in 5 DAYS!!! And was in a new vehicle 10 days after having my accident.
I was pleasantly surprised as I was expecting to have to fight for my claim.
