Very soon you will need to buy 20 different insurance policies for each specific type of damages 😂

I believe the hurricanes this year are going to be devastatingly strong. People need to get out of its way and take the situation seriously.

It can't even begin to imagine a hurricane landing !

[@runfayalife]

Like everything, it's not as bad as the news makes it out to be.

Our beloved free market capitalist system that always knows what is best for society has spoken via the insurance companies: Thou shalt not live in Florida unless you can own your own house outright and self insure.

Ill take a little snow any day...

[@asoulalignedhowgodhealshis6682]

That's "cute" that you think insurance personnel are there to "help people"

[@Ydoit]

Baseboard, drywall, flooring, paint, mold treatment, and more not covered in flood insurance? What’s the point then 😂

[@EikeEnki]

But how Miami can't solve the floods problem?

[@elelectrotech9374]

the government did nothing to mitigate the flooding.all they did was hope that it would not happen again.and it will happen gain

They are too busy controlling women, attacking LGBTQ rights and telling children which books they can read to be bothered actually doing their jobs.

Cars sold in the Western United States need to be fireproof. Midwestern cars need to be resistant to tornadoes and hail. And cars sold on the coast need to be submersible.

[@Dashone184]

Obviously not...

[@mcdizzle1863]

Answer.. probably not but you might get lucky

[@suddenlysolo2170]

Lets hope not....

[@debrahelmlinger6256]

Easier said then done, so what are they going to cover, such B.S.

Proper prior sand bagging and pump rental wiĺl take a bunch off the property owners or mortgage companies with rental properties lowers insurance rastes and insurabikity, no dogs and no cats, renters insurance can be voided by those pets in the house and things like that need to be gone over with your insurance carrier and property owner and or mortgage company, inspections as well as personal puctures of power poles and city and county and state contrscted as well as private contractors work old and new, in case the community needs to sue the power companies workers group before they run from the law suits, the sanitary lines and the storm drains rims and odd cracks in driveways and odd yard sinking signs such as yard puddles, known under ground tunnels of cool kids growing weed or making meth for their gang buddies,.. things like that going on and un reported and massive damage occourse and loss of life haopens those kids and their parents can be held accountable for notreporting it, which can be some very exoensive law suits against those persons and void all fema aide money and insurance. Life terms and exicution when national security and FEMA begin rounding them up if they dont report it ahead of time for liencies considerations.

No we won't. It'll be biblical. Massive casualties.

The gov should not nterfere with Darwinism. They chose to move here.

[@runfayalife]

I was born here.

[@imtheeastgermanguy5431]

​@@runfayalife unfortunately some people are just stupid and rude by saying "it's your fault to live there" and I have to say that in some areas it's maybe not a good idea to build houses especially just on the ground. If they would put them on poles that would be better
