Clearly the Republicans, nationally and in this state, are the party of big government. They want to control everyone one way or another, and extract more money from ordinary people in order to benefit the super-wealthy.
Donalds is just like his boss, Trump: a constant liar.
Maintaining 2022 and 2023 legislation that has resulted in a reduction of homeowners’ insurance lawsuits that, in turn, has helped lower insurance companies’ legal costs and resulted in lower homeowner insurance premiums.
“But when Floridians look at the rising rate of claim denials, the skyrocketing bills and their own diminished rights, there’s only one logical conclusion: These changes are working exactly as planned — in favor of insurance companies and their armies of lobbyists, and against Floridian businesses and homeowners.”
DeSantis had 7+ years and many taxpayer-funded special sessions on HO insurance and produced nothing. If the state leans on the insurance companies, they will just pull out of Florida. It's a thorny issue and has been for decades. Citizens Insurance will never keep up with the rampant development in Florida for the last 70 years. You can't have every homeowner on Citizens; it's not realistic. The next governor needs to find a way to bring insurance companies into Florida to write HO insurance.
Florida has been in republican state for as long as I can remember and all I've experienced is some type of trickery in favor of the state or the wealthy. Just like they got it wrong about electing trump on giving him a chance because he wasn't a politician then we should give a Democrat one. Look at history when a Democrat is in charge vs a republican
So much growth in Florida. Developers need to build homes to withstand Florida storms. I own a dome home which is known to withstand wind damage and yet I pay a much higher premium because it’s considered non traditional. Maybe the solution is bringing homes up to hurricane/ wind damage code and less traditional.
The hypocrisy of Republicans and insurance corporation CEOs is shameful. They use lies and fear as their weapons to torpedo any reasonable legislation that actually help the working class. We are at the mercy of rampant, unchecked capitalism for the benefit of those well connected.
Interesting that the FSU numbers score a different plan from Jolly's. Australia tried something close in 2022, a government pool for cyclone risk: premiums in high-risk areas fell about 14%, with a A$10 billion taxpayer guarantee behind it. Who would stand behind a Florida fund after a bad season?
The Donalds campaign has been lying and name calling from day 1. If we elect him, we will deserve what we will get.
