		<description>Matt, 

Not that I was a fan of O'Quinn, but is there anything you'd care to add of a positive nature to anything around here?</description>

		<description>He represented unbridled greed gaming an entitlement oriented society.

No Horatio Alger he. More Citizen Kane. And somewhere in the warehouses with the 800 cars is probably "Rosebud" which no one will take notice of. He will be quickly forgotten and when someone else comes up with bigger bucks, his name will vanish from the buildings. 


There really is little about him to admire. Except the money. Which was, really, always tainted.</description>

		<description>Psuedoscientists and grudgeholders everywhere have lowered their flags to half mast, apparently the real estate establishment has too.  He represented unbridled greed gaming an entitlement oriented society.  Pioneering in one sense.</description>

		<description>There are always going to be companies that charge too much to be competitive, along with people foolish enough to buy goods and services from said companies.

Most would argue the point with you with regard to what is slowly becoming a monopolization of the health care industry by the insurers but most realize that anyone who uses "socialists" as an argument to any opinion other than yours is wasting their time.</description>

		<description>Matt,

There are always going to be companies that charge too much to be competitive, along with people foolish enough to buy goods and services from said companies.  On the other hand, there will always be competitors to said companies that are hungry for business that provide the same goods and services at more competitive pricing models.  That is, until the socialists attempting to turn this country towards a full scale socialism experiment get their way.  Then, if that happens, watch prices for everything go through the roof, along with shortages and rationing.</description>

		<description>Matt, 

The insurance industry is never fond of tort actions that result in elevated risk assumption expense.

___________

Oh please. For every dollar they've paid out they've taken in two. And for every dollar they've paid out, they've added another dollar to the premiums so they've really taken in three. 

Some people really believe other people are stupid. Some are. Some aren't.</description>

		<description>Yes let's not forget the Carousel House. The Chronicle sometimes leaves you wondering how it has managed to stay in business.

Not a lot of mourning apparently and even his friends really didn't think that much of him based on some of the comments. 

Of course he will be remembered fondly by the insurance industry considering he single-handedly provided the basis for increased premiums for both board/company liability insurance and medical malpractice insurance.</description>
