HELL NO !!!! It's about time something was finally done. :clap: I'm thinking these "boys" had better start cleaning up their act........

From the article it looks like they have 8 years to make sure that they are clean or face the wrath.

My industry has a lobbyist that sometimes takes some of our members to the Capitol to discuss things we question the insurance industry is doing to consumers. As our lobbyist leaves the insurance commissioner's office, the insurance industry lobbyist is entering the other door. It appears that there is no justice any more. However Kane appears to possibly be doing something about this widespread corruption. I also realize that most of the investigations were started under Corbett but why wasn't anything brought forth while he was AG ????

A lot of this may be coming out due to the Bob Mellow investigation. He is local scum and has done whatever to help himself. He probably ratted a few out.
