Thanks for seeing the light. State Farm is the bad guy--lied, committed fraud against policy holders, wouldn't pay claims. Policy holders sued and got justice. State Farm makes a big play that they're not going to write new policies in MS (they had already pulled out of South MS) What scenario would have been acceptable?

My take: Insurance companies are greedy ba$tards that will do only what they are forced to do; therefore, we need legislation to place them under anti-trust laws to prevent collusion for price fixing and claim fixing, and they need to be forced to provide coverage for all comers if they provide coverage for anyone. Why should they be allowed to discriminate while having protection from anti-trust. While this mess is getting straightened out the Feds need to step up the flood insurance to offer disaster insurance--one payer for hurricanes. That's my list for Santa.

Just heard an interesting segment on talk radio this morning. G. Gordon Liddy read what was obviously a press release from State Farm on their spin of the MS situation--he then got a caller from South MS who is a State Farm employee who set Liddy and the listeners straight on the facts of the situation. Caller was very well informed and had to work for SF to know some of the things he stated--he caught Liddy speechless--all Liddy could do was thank him and go to commercial.
