I’m not sure if gay marriage causes hurricanes, but it looks an awful lot like hate and fascism cause floods.
It’s almost as if ignoring a problem, doesn’t make it go away.
Why? I have it on good authority from every bank hired economists and neoliberal on earth that if you have a student loan it is because you are a privileged multimillionaire who just doesn’t feel like paying them, also if we give you a break the inflation will be so bad we will be BBQing human babies for food.
CATO’s main funding sources are banks that service student loans and CATO sued the federal government to not give debt relief. Their argument was, and I shit you not, that if student debt relief is given they will have to pay interns more.
Im reading Yojou Senki and all I can think from seeing your post is an incomprehensible rant that can be best summarized as something something fuck you Being X.
He knows democrats will bail him out because they do the right thing. Insurance agencies won’t, though. The writing is on the wall when your insurance premiums skyrocket. Or worse, they drop you.
How many insurance companies are actually left in Florida? I thought a good percentage of them have pulled out of the state entirely citing climate change. I know the premiums offered by the remaining companies have to be insane and it’s not going to get any better.
Massive flooding of whole cities is simply not an insurable thing. Not even with all the reinsurers in the world can you pay out a city of millions. Most sane countries don’t even try.
I live about 5m under sea level. Should de dikes breach and my polder flood (and I don’t die horribly), the insurance company pays fuck all. The Dutch state has a giant mountain of cash sitting by for cases like that.
Of course, handing DeSantis a giant pile of emergency cash would just mean it instantly gets turned into bribes, so that wouldn’t work for Florida.
Fun fact, the biggest point in Florida is currently 345 feet above sealevel. (it’s somewhere near the ballsack.)
The average is like 100
It’s a very bad state to ignore climate change in.
(Edit fixed the stats.)
My insurance is dropping me because I had the audacity to try to use it. We had one claim that paid for some damage after a flood, one to pay for a water heater, and that’s it. They decided that means we will probably ask again the next time something goes wrong, so why would they want to keep insuring us?
Insurance is a scam, and it pisses me off that we’re still tolerating their bullshit.
The concept is good. But the way it is run right now is just taking money and fight tooth and nail to pay as less as they can gey away with it.
I’ve had friends get fucked in the ass by their insurance company that refused to let them buy flood insurance even though they weren’t particularly close to a body of water. When the “once in 500 years” (not) flood came, their house that they had owned for years was destroyed. Insurance that they paid for picked up none of their $100,000 damages.
They rebuilt it out of pocket and are selling it and moving to a place that is more ecologically stable. Fuck insurance companies.
I mean…. It sounds like the insurance company knew it was going to flood. Being close to a body of water has nothing to do with likelihood to flood…
Seems like your friends should have moved before the flood, if they couldn’t get insurance for it. Why were they even searching for flood insurance if “they weren’t particularly close to a body of water”?
Sorry but this definitely sounds like your friends’ fault. They knew they needed the insurance because it would flood, the insurance company knew with high certainty it was going to flood, and then it did flood.
In May, DeSantis signed a bill that removes most references to climate change from state law and streamlines fossil fuel development projects—“Don’t Say Climate Change,” the bill’s critics have called it, including a meteorologist who spoke up against it on air. On the day he signed the legislation, Key West was a record-setting 115°F.
