Florida's Citizens (State run insurance - or "public") has saved a lot of people here, however the Republicans don't like it one bit - so they push everyone off it by creating laws that kick people out and mandate you take a private policy offered if it's 20% of an increase (or less). If you don't take it, then you might be lucky enough to be allowed to renew. It's called "depopulation" (which I think is way more accurate than they'd like).

The 20% number was implemented because people screamed holy hale (sic) when there was no limit to the increase, and you still had to take it.

"it was one person who was immediately dealt with by other Harris supporters."

Exactly. Dealt with peacefully, and created a space for the father and daughter. Acting humanely. Compassionately. Not sure why a trump supporter would publish this, though. Seems like a contrast they wouldn't want to highlight?

Thanks, Eberly.

I don't disagree but what makes them any bigger idiot than any other Florida resident?

To be honest, I've been wondering that myself after living through the last few hurricanes. I'm here because of elderly family that I need to help with. Can't move them easily - if at all. So I'm a bit stuck.

so the main drivers in the increase of home insurance increases in Florida are:

Hurricanes and flooding, litigation, fraud (massive), no competition (insurance companies leaving in droves because it's not profitable in this crazy state), location that homes and businesses are building, and we have a lot of people with lousy credit.

Your insurance company is reacting to housing costs going through the roof. The average cost of a home in the US topped $400K last year.

Nope. That's a minor part of it here. The prices of houses going up here is due to private capital buy ups and an influx of red staters. That's over now. That spike is coming down because these idiots have lived through two hurricanes now and they didn't like it. It's not from migrants moving here buying 750K houses.

We had one hurricane after another - and massive floods with few people carrying flood insurance. We'e had development going unchecked for years - and building on wetlands and along the coast. So much of it getting wiped out over the past decade.

And the building codes get tougher and tougher - costing more and more to build.

STD's giving Captain Obvious a run for his nom.

Gotta love Trump earlier trying to get ahead of this saying this isn't the "1939 Nazi rally" and then it ends up sounding like the 1939 Nazi rally.

You wrongly assume I was defending another post. I wasn't.

You responded to a post about a specific post.
You did not start a new post or new thought.
You did it deliberately in response to a charge made in the original response.
You did it to obfuscate.
You did it to deflect.
You did it to defend.

Stop lying - either to yourself, first, or to all of us.

WaPo's coverage beats the shht out of Emo Elon.

I didn't read it that way, personally.
I believe Trump doesn't care if he wins or loses the election. He fully intends on being President.

All of what you said in #49 is irrelevant.
Figure that out.

And why did they have that expectation?

Stop deflecting from the ridiculous statement that was blasted to shht. Your deflection and flailing at another false equivalence was just as stupid.

#31 - lol!

She didn't get booed.
The booing was because some people came expecting Beyonce to perform.
She spoke instead.
When Beyonce left without singing, some people booed.
That's a hell of a lot different than saying "Besides being shallow, she's not even likable. She's been booed 2-3 times at her own rallies and she doesn't know what to do with it."
That's nonsensical. It's stupid. And you pretending the Beyonce situation even applies to the above is both nonsensical and stupid.

The three stimulus payments combined totaled $3200.

And just like that, another fiction destroyed by fact.

Thanks Visitor for proving my point.
20,000,000.
Absolute nonsense.

including homeowners insurance?

Yes. To deflect from not doing anything about it. It's a constant.

An example: I listened to two people at the PT talking about the immigrants being the first problem that has to be dealt with before anything else can be done. That immigrants are driving up the price of housing, causing rates to rise for homes and for insuring them because, apparently, immigrants don't buy home insurance or something.

I didn't say it made any sense. I didn't say it was true. It is neither of those things. But damn, they sure are a handy thing to point at and blame for everything. Aren't they?

Having fun being shhtheaps? "floating island of garbage" was hilarious. If you're a racist POS.
Good luck remaking that turd.

It's not just Florida. My insurance and property taxes doubled this year. Bidenomics/Harrisnomics

Blaming the wrong people isn't going to fix the problem. What a moronic statement to make.

Your side denies the cause.
Your side points to immigrants as the problem for everything else so your side (Scott/DeSantis/Rubio, etc) can avoid doing anything.
I live in Florida.
I'm seeing this shht happening.
Anyone with an actual functioning brain knows why, who, and what is responsible.

What we're missing are solutions. Solutions take work. Thought. Intelligence.
Three things Republicans in this state refuse to do and don't have.

She isn't booed at her own rallies. That's rather uninformed to say. We have protests that do happen from time to time. We're no different than Trump in that regard.
Where there have been protests from some protesters, she responds joyfully with "Oh! You want the smaller rally down the street!" and the entire audience and her laugh. It's quite fun, and a great response on her part.

So different than Trump's hate-filled "beat the crap out of them!" response.

And you think you bring that up here helps you? Seriously?

Editor shouldn't have quit. They should have run the endorsement and dared billionaire bitty balls to bite. Editor may have been fired, and so what?

Ah. Back to "botherism" now that the carpet got ripped out from under you.

I cancelled my WaPo subscription today and let them know exactly why. Their editorial of why they did this was utter nonsense. It was rationalization for what was already decided.

LA Times billionaire owner killed the paper's endorsement of Harris as well.
