Insured From What

What is it with insurance today?
Why is it such an endeavor? 
It used to be that when you pay
You were covered for whatever

Now they nit pick it all to death
They try to say parts aren't covered
I deal with ailments we all have
Not something that's undiscovered

Insurance insures my peace of mind
That's what it is supposed to be
Sometimes it seems I'm just insured
Of trouble down the road for me!

Pat, wonder if there's insurance to go to heaven. If there is, I wonder what the price is?

Lol. Trouble and headaches. I personally think car insurance should be eliminated. Drive at your own risk, just like riding a horse. I bet Gene and Roy didn't have insurance. Thanks for the chuckle, my friend.

I understand where your coming from as sometimes some insurances seems more like an insurance scam! A well written rant that I think a lot of us can relate to Pat!~Che :)
