Chad- Sorry about the lack of direct deposit. Someone should work on that for you huh?

Charles- I would say that was a well thought out post. Respectful, even if not everyone agrees with your points (and I am not taking either side here).

Can you tell I don't have enough to do? I like posting, it gives me something to do. For the record, I do not work in claims. I also do not "pick sides" because, like everyone else, I do not have enough info. It's funny how Jim always responds to my posts though. I re-read EVERY single comment he had posted before I posted mine. I made sure I wasn't confusing any of his reponses with those of nameless (still not convinced they are not one and the same). I saw one direct reference to a source for his "facts"-

"The original WC decision was can be found on the Iowa Worker's compensation commission website under "decisions". Look under 2003 decisions for Zimmer v. Norwest Financial." Great- a source, but just one. I guess I'll give you Colussus even though I don't know anything about it. So, two sources.

Then you stated "Noone has refuted the FACT that insurance company profits for the first 9 months of 06 exceeded 467 billion dollars." Where did you get that fact?

I have no problem with your point of view, but I do have a problem with your misrepresentation of mine. And, to me that means you obviously did not read (or you did not comprehend) my posts. So, stop making comments about me. They were stupid, and not only that, extremely immature. I did not insult you, so grow up, ok? Thanks!

Anyway, I am one of those people who thinks the world isn't fair. I think the truth should always be told, no matter who is at fault. That means, if the injured worker isn't "lying" they should win. Conversely, if the injured worker is not really disabled (ie: busted through surveillance), the insurance company should not have to pay. Uhm, isn't that what we are all striving for? Fairness? I know it doesn't happen, but that was exactly my point.
