Thumbs down Altruistic Oil and Insurance companies?

It was announced that UK Insurance companies would make a profit for the first time in 10 years in 2009.

What? Are these the same companies that advertise ad infinitum for your custom?

So what, then? Are we expected to believe, as we are of the oil companies, that they sell their product at a loss, or for zero profit, merely out of the goodness of their hearts?

All I can say to that is:BOLLOX!

Don't forget that its insurance companies that have to foot the bill for all the no-win-no-fee litigation sensation that we've had since it was imported from the US about 10 years ago
