    Charlie and Kevin are presented by State Farm with the Hall of Shame award for economic ignorance.

    How about letting SF charge what they want and any other carrier as well. Can anyone figure out there are no good carriers writing property insurance in Florida. We should be kissing their as* in order to get someone to write windstorm coverage in hurricane alley.

    I think your both right he is awarded with senator but we are awarded the biggest loser award for electing him governor and then senator.

    How about a new politician who hasnt yet become corupted by power and dreams of political advancement. The state of Florida needs “change” but the feds have given us enough “change” already.

    I don’t have all the answers, but I do have this one on disaster preparedness/recovery:

    A letter pertaining to disaster (hurricane, earthquake, tornado, flood, fire, etc.) has been sent to President Obama on behalf of all insurance policyholders. As a matter of transparency on the record of insurance consumer protection, any response by President Obama will be posted on the following Website for review: http://www.disasterprepared.net/president.html

    I have no problem with SF leaving the state and most awards are trully meaningless. This is a free market economy ( until creeping Socialism takes over )and SF has the right to do or not do business in Fl. One less firm for trial lawyers to pick on.

    You are correct, Superjuster. However, the boys and girls in the state capitol did everything possible to demonize State Farm.

    It has been the contention of many logical and objective individuals from the beginning of this fiasco that it has everything to do with political power and nothing to do with insurance or economics. In spite of being a horrible company as alleged by state officials and others, State Farm was represented by many honorable agents and found hundreds of thousands of customers to purchase their insurance coverage.

    The best insurance organization one could possible create will have more than its fair share of detractors and dissatisfied policyholders. A political hack would not have to work very hard to locate these detractors and use them to advance an agenda.

    This appears to be a classic example of “be careful what you wish for.” It seems certain the citizens of Florida will rue the day they fought so hard to push State Farm out of Florida.

    Where will these people get their homeowners coverage?

    Citizens?
    Universal Property and Casualty?
    St Johns?
    ASI?
    Tower Hill?

    Hmmmmmmm!, I thought so. no money and no capacity to handle all the risk.

    Way to go Charlie and Kevin!! Thank you for the disaster!

    It is sad to think that we can regulate business and tell an organisation what to charge and profits and losses they should have. State Farm is a company that has always stood next to its customers… I do think they are also a mutual company for those that don’t know what that means… no stock holders to try and appease. It is a sad statement, but get ready to flip open your wallets… we are about to go for that “magical ride” because Charlie and Kevin wanted more power. Let me ask you, how much have you saved under their leadership? Are we betetr for it? thought so! Charlie or Kevin, can you please explain how State Farm leaving florida is good for employment? Economy? Insurance? The families who now have to find insurance at your state funded (our taxes) level?
