um...warren buffet - GEICO....

1. geico currently does not operate insurance in mass. so we are not making any more money there, nor in warrens pocket!

2. geico has only been back in NJ for approx 3-4 yrs. so competively we do save many folks on insurance.

3. if mass wud loosen up the restrictions, we might move in and then they might get really good competitive rates.

4. if the state only allows an ers only if you have aaa, then that is biased and that sounds like a definate kickback either from the company or aaa. that is not a competition of the market when you deny others of similar service to compete. is aaa better than other motorclubs? not really - in most cases you are limited on the amount of times you can use the product. most of the discounts you recieve, you now can get on your own w/access to the www.

so who is fooling whom here? i think the local government is testing the waters but the wrong way and only truly helping themselves to still maintain control of the market.
