See, I don’t understand acts of god as it pertains to insurance. Acts of god are unforeseen, unavoidable accidents. What is insurance for if not literally that exact situation?

Insurance companies jacking up premiums and/or pulling out of areas is like the only proper feedback loop for adapting to climate change left. Not saying I’m happy about it. I would not be totally shocked if health insurance starts having carve outs for heat related illnesses and their complications. Typing it out, I guess what’s more likely is raising premiums in areas with hospitals that serve a patient base in a high risk area.

It’s not even evil, it’s just math, so long as this is the way we want healthcare to “work”.

Gotta make use of that Force Majeure-clause

Damn they might be insuring large companies that are causing climate change, that might just seemingly possibly affect their business.

They probably wish they could pin it on an entity and recover losses through subrogation rather than just taking the hit. By ‘taking the hit’ I mean all us taking the hit, but they’d probably like being able to shake money out of judgments and raise our rates at the same time

DNC did a bad job in singling out grocery for greedflation. By far the biggest greedflation influence was insurance. They did use global warming as a “marketing ploy” for cost increases though. Basically, insurance is 2 separate businesses. 1. getting more premiums than payouts + administration costs. 2. A bond investment fund.

High interest rates above inflation for so long, meant big payoffs for high premium hikes. It’s ok if it means customers refuse, because they get to keep previous premiums when they do. Get to cut sales expenses in trying to get new business, and just harvest that sweet cash in order to invest in their bond fund.

The major CPI component that was sticky, and let Republican Fed Chairman keep rates high to slow economy down, was these insurance premiums.
