Right. Just like you can save money by buying a car without power steering, power brakes or an automatic transmission, insurance corporations will beat a path to your door to sell you a less-profitable policy with fewer attachments.
Just whose payroll do you think those special interest group lobbyists are on? Soccer moms? What could possibly be a more effective way to move a "product" and increase profits than by getting the Legislature to require it?
