It seems to me that most of you have missed the point. It's not about defining a people or about dragging up the past. It's about clients (and heirs) getting what they paid for. How long will Katrina victims fight for what is rightfully theirs? And now with flooding in the midwest and fires in the west, how many more claims will insurance companies try to get out of paying. We have seen this more than once--people who have paid premiums for many years for insurance COVERAGES only to have to fight for what is rightfully theirs--a claims check. It's not about race, religion, or even history. It's about people standing up instead of rolling over. These people mentioned in this article must have extreme patience and fortitude to keep this up for so long. Most of us would have given up and just taken what small percentage (of what is due to us) and went on. Furthermore, why does it anger you so? What personal stake do you have in this? "These people" as it was put are entitled to the same considerations as "we people", like it or not.
