The greatest scam in the history of the world...

This essay is a story about insurance, or rather, a story about a type of insurance policy which underwent a mutation. This mutation was not spontaneous – it was engineered. It was one of the biggest scams ever perpetrated.

Paradoxically, the problem was that it worked too well and just got too big.

Don't miss:

  1. No bonus? No problems! Bankers get hefty pay rise...
  2. AIG bonuses "staggering in size", 7 execs received $7m each...
  3. Peter Schiff: Obama and more govt. is NOT the solution...
  4. Where'd the bailout money go? Shhhh, it's a secret...
  5. Jon Stewart destroying Jim Cramer...
