Layer after layer after layer of intrigue. it boggles the mind! FYI, though, they would make money because the life insurance policies WOULD pay! But not to the families -- they'd pay to whoever had been paying the premiums on the policies -- the European bank funds, just waiting for folks to keel over and deliver the jackpots like so many slot machines. I don't think this is a case of "What they don't know won't hurt them", because they are betting people will die sooner rather than later. I agree the whole thing IS UNCOSCIONABLE.

SO, for THESE European investors, if some epidemic or ... whatever... were to wipe out a city or two full of Americans, they'd make money because the insurance wouldn't have to pay! THAT'S UNCONSCIONABLE! You mean PEOPLE ARE BETTING CERTAIN MEMBERS OF A NATIONALITY (AMERICAN) ARE NOT GOING TO LIVE MUCH LONGER????
