> My point exactly. Somehow society has come to believe that insurance > companies (for example) are fair targets for all kinds of abuse (ie: fraud). > Again, an insurance company is really its shareholders and employees, and Again, I don't condone / support theft/fraud, but how is it that people are supposed to want to look out for insurance companies when it is clear that insurance companies don't care about hurting their policyholders? Assume that there is a business which is operating in your community, and you are morally opposed to what service / goods they provide (ie abortion clinic, strip club, "check loan" joint, etc) Are you going to be as active at opposing theft/fraud against these establishments as you will be against, say a local church?
