Why do these insurance companies continue their advertising when they are pulling out of areas, canceling policies. making claimants battle for their payments??? TV ads constantly. We on the west coast have been subsidizing the southern regions re-re-re-building of hurricanes, tornadoes, floods for decades.
I understand the insurance model of business but that doesn't mean that it is even close to perfection.
