Sorry, our mistake, we meant to deny 99% of claims.

I sure hope some angry person who they screwed over doesn't feel it's necessary to take action of their own, since the systems we have in place aren't going to punish them.

No, not soon enough?

The fear these people have now, the loss of something precious to them, security, a safe place to be. That feeling is exactly what they they have been denying.

Floridians voted for Bush, they voted for Trump, and most of them think global warming is made up. Watching them get wrecked is seriously the only good thing about climate change.

We owe a debt of gratitude to Luigi.

That would be because every home/property insurer in Florida is going broke / leaving the state / hiking up rates by absurd amounts.

Oops, climate broke, living in Florida is economically unsustainable.

Its not like Florida is gonna do a massive spending program to renovate and refit homes....they tried to do a government backed home insurance and oops thats too expensive too, time to cancel it.

Good. Let them reap what they sowed.

Imagine you though that a guy from the left which will be hunted by the police to discover that the guy is a completely normal guy right leaning. The terror.
