I just heard that insurance industry has a new money making plan.
They want to insure old people and people in high risk jobs, and of course keep the money. My first thought was outrage and disgust, but then I thought why can't we do the same. We could donate to a fund that insures really old and disagreeable people like the guy who owns viacom and George Herbert and Barbara Bush, to name a few.

We would then donate the money to make sure more progressives are elected and all the dinos are defeated. If it is legal for companies to do this, we should do it as well, only better. We could form a non profit company funded by donations and beat them at their own game. As we would not be in it for profit, our rate of return would be higher.

If anyone thinks this is even a halfway good idea, lets investigate it some more.
