Insurance Rate Hike

Thanks Louisiana!

BATON ROUGE -- A subdued Louisiana Insurance Rating Commission approved a trio of rate increases Wednesday for the beleaguered Louisiana Citizens Property Insurance Corp. after members learned they would face legal action from the board of the state-sponsored insurer of last resort if the rate hikes were denied.

They just dont get it. How in the hell do they expect people to move back when they cant afford to insure their home for the bare minimum. I cant get any insurance co to insure my house because I live less than a mile from the lake, so my only option is the fair plan. Thanks to these jack*****, my $3000 a year policy is going to go up to around $4500, if I cant get another insurer by years end, I will probably just sell my house and get the hell out of here and Im sure I wont be the only one.
