So you are saying that because insurance companies make money from premiums voluntarily paid by policy-holders, that everyone should just feel free to defraud those same insurance companies at will?
Also that because some insurance companies made huge profits, we shouldn’t care if someone files a false claim and steals some of those profits?


Well, okay then.

If an adjuster calculates the damages and you can get it done for less, how is that fraud? Fraud is when you fake or deceive to get the damages rated higher, like when people fake injuries for the doctor but go skiing the next day...




The fact that the anti Trumpers are so quick to cling on to ANY tiny little thing is amazing...especially in light of the mountains of stuff their people have done....oh wait we're not supposed to mention any of that because it hurts their case.

At this point, what difference does it make?


Our election system is too complex for the Russians to hack it.


I told Russia to cut it out


Tell Vladimer that I'll have more leeway after I get reelected.


Donald Trump will NOT be President


Anyone who doesn't accept the results does not have what it take to be in that position in the first place.
A lot of stuff taken out of context ..

Socialize the losses privatize the profits.

Do you REALLY think they just write checks WITHOUT INSPECTING the properties?

Yeah .. sure … except …

Trumps insurance agent is a big time contributor to his PAC and the adjuster conveniently can not remember much detail about a 17 MILLION payout.

Ok I guess I have to say it again. First, who committed insurance fraud?

Second: I'm saying insurances companies enrich themselves with other peoples money. See right here

"insurance companies who take all those premium checks month after month, year after year and enrich themselves on the investment using other peoples money."
This does not equal "So you are saying that because insurance companies make money from premiums voluntarily paid by policy-holders, that everyone should just feel free to defraud those same insurance companies at will?"

I said NOTHING resembling it is ok for anyone to defraud insurance companies. I dont know where you are pulling that from.
Here is what I am saying:
Filing a claim is not insurance fraud. Filing a claim does not enrich one by means of taking other peoples money.
Insurance companies are the ones taking peoples money. Insurance companies enrich the company by investing that money. The people paying the premiums are placing a bet, they have lost nothing except that premium. The people who file claims are collecting on their parlay.

No Im not saying its ok to defraud insurance companies.

LMAO ...you're doubling down on this nonsense.... you think a insurance agent has the authority to write a check for 17 million with no oversight?
