[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] My dad works for an insurance company, which I will refer to as AG. About thirty years ago, AG bought another insurance company in Florida that, around fourty years ago, was selling life insurance to black people at a higher rate than white people. This only makes sense, as black people on average don't live quite as long. Of course, this is now illegal (which is, IMNHO, REALLY stupid, but that's a different topic), but at the time it was done by the company that AG bought did it, it wasn't. Now, a bunch of black people who bought insurance from the other comapny are suing AG and six other companies for two reasons. 1: They were charged more than white people for equivalent insurance. Keep in mind that they signed a contract to this effect before it became illegal. 2: They have payed more into the insurance than they can get out of it. Under any other circumstances, I'd just laugh at the ignorance of any asinine people who thought that they could get a easy few mil of a big corporation on such utterly ludicrous grounds as these, but only one of the companies is fighting (not AG)! Has the justice system actually become so inept that they just think that they could not win? [/QB][/QUOTE]
