Was there realy a crisis? Fact is in the Mid 1980's the prices for Med. Mal were close to where they are now. That was at investment income levels of 12% to 20% on approved investments for carriers. It was a crisis then because the world had really changed with regard to settlements. This recent problem had to do with greed and ignorance, not change in risk.

Get Real everybody the public as a whole is being dupped by all this.
