The Inefficiency Paradox -
Making Sense of the Insurance Industry


A Paper by Vinsurance.com

Abstract

Effectiveness requires redundancy. Makes sense. It’s also a contradiction. It’s called the “paradox of inefficiency”. We resolve this paradox by creating models or constructs of what is effective. We create these models to organize making sense of our individual economic situation, the viability of a business and even to rationalize entire industrial structures and operations. For instance in this case, the insurance industry. These ‘contradiction resolution constructs’ we create are remarkably dynamic. These models enable us to effectively earn a living and/or maintain a standard of living in times of relative stability and in times of extreme challenge. This paper presents this argument accordingly in (10) pages. Several bold industry proposals are made to illustrate main points.
