It's sad the amount of fraud that happens...here's what one of my friends dad does..
He makes about $30,000 a year doing nothing (I know thats not alot comparing it to a good job but he doesn't do shit)
He pretty much scammed social security saying he has a bad back...
But here is the killer, I seen him do the following, throw hail bails, move a piano and a huge solid oak wooden church pew. If I ever got in an accident that involved insurance companies I would settle for just for compensation of some sort to get me back on my feet. Today it's just if you have a better lawyer or not. It sickens me
Also I'm totally agreeing with cynthetiq.....you leech off an insurance companies and it screws the rest of us over. Yes insurance companies are very rich.....but having people do stupid lawsuits gives them a reason to hike up rates.....
