The Insurance Industry

I’m tired of reading complaints about being forced by the state to wear helmets and/or seatbelts. I’m tired of reading about the smoking ban too. All these regulations are supported by lobbyists for the insurance industry because it translates into lower costs for them.

Did the new-found savings to the insurance industry translate into lower insurance premiums for consumers? This is a question you can only answer for yourself by looking at your old statements, and listening to them boast about their vast holdings. I think you may become outraged.

Have you heard of the Flood Insurance Modernization Project? The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is collecting survey information of rivers and lakes that flood in the state.

This information will show the location and size of previously flooded areas in the state, and will determine whether or not future government Funds will go toward projects within those areas.

Do you live in a flood area? Maybe they think you do. Does your insurance company think you do? Did your home insurance change recently? Are you covered for any kind of water damage anymore? You might want to make sure the status of your farmland hasn’t changed also.

Just like everything else, the industrialists can once again say GOTCHA SUCKA! And they got the government they hate so much, to once again do it for them.
