Re: Insurance meltdown: Legislature must tackle this issue.

[Guest guest]

,

In response to the Insurance Meltdown I must say in

the defense of the people involved in claims, be it

property damage or health issues, that the insurance

companies need to reform their practices of insuring

blindly, without inspection and testing. However

because they did insure, they need to pay the claims

and if they can't pay the full claim they need to

negotiate payment with the claimant. This attitude of

ignoring claimants, delaying payment, and denying of

claim is outright wrong. Of course you can't give a

corporation a conscience, but it can happen(castrophy)

to them individually too. From a distance.....
