Subject: Re: OT: Hurricane Strength and Damage
It is only fair to point out that this second article comes from The Lever, an online publication founded by David Sirota, a left-leaning investigative journalist who co-produced the satiric climate film "Don't Look Up" and once wrote speeches for Bernie Sanders. A 21% increase in homeowner rates since 2015 seems quite moderate compared to, say, the price of eggs.
Not just eggs. There has been 32.8% inflation since 2015, so if insurance rates are really up 21% in the same time period, they have become cheaper, not more expensive.
