[GoLeft TV]

Ring of Fire’s Sam Seder and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. discuss how Illinois Farmer Insurance Company is suing 12 local governments under claims that it ignored climate change science which allowed massive flooding.

1. Hope the NRA is not paying attention to this

In-pleading that others knew or should have known that certain people or weapons could cause significant damage seems a natural extension of this kind of thinking.

3. Don't get too excited about Farmers! Overnight they canceled all of their insurance on coastal

areas leaving folks unprotected (me too) and destroying many of their agents businesses without warning. The agents really got screwed with no warning and Farmers did absolutely nothing for them.

4. Well the insurance business is built on the ponzi scheme

and any time they have to pay out a lot of large claims the pyramid starts to crumble. So since they don't have anyone to sue in your case they leave you high and dry. At least until the water rises. Hopefully there is something you and your neighbors can do to fight back. good luck.
