"free market capitalism" isn't equitable at all.

Who told you free market capitalism is supposed to be "equitable"?

I don't know what to tell you regarding being left alone - many frivolous lawsuits in this country (like Parler's)...it's the nature of the beast.

Well then bask in your glory as companies "cancel out" conservatives.

Once they are done they will turn on themselves.
Never seen the left so giddy defending capitalism and corporations.

Yup..clean up your social media profile and say you are "progressive" and all will be fine.

AIG

Weren't they the company that got bailed out by TAXPAYERS during the 2007/2008 financial meltdown?

OK and?

Look, I live my life right. I am not going to a MAGA protest or a BLM protest. I don't partake in "activism" events. I don't put political bumper stickers on my car or signs in front of my house.

As such, I have a pretty standard liability profile. I should expect to receive the lowest liability premium of anyone. I should not have to pay higher premiums to subsidize people who partake in violent activities that could result in personal harm or legal liability.

Cut off anyone with a questionable profile right or left...I don't care!

When wildfire swept through town here, people who lived in the new Red Zone had their homeowners policies canceled.
Risk management.

Yeah..they were big players with the subprime mortgages. They were "too big to fail". In fact, they were ground zero in the collapse.

LMAO "the left"...name calling is so, what 3rd grade?

I am a conservative and support the free market. Sorry you think the government should step in and tell companies they can't cancel contracts when customers violate them.

Maybe you should introduce some "regulations".

What wording do you think AIG has with regards to one's "social media profile" ?
