Monopolies are never good for the individual. Who outside of the Florida Keys ever heard that there was only one company we could get windstorm insurance from, thought that was illegal. The situation is further compounded by a Governor and Legislature who have lost sight of whom they represent. It is we the people who elected them, and it is we the people who can vote them out of office. They don't give a hoot, let's give them the boot !

Tallahassee and a pro insurance company governor. They don't care about the working people with mortgages or retired people on fixed incomes. What ever Citizen wants in Florida they get. So the Florida politicians have put on the ballot a few " homestead exemption goodies" for full time residents on the ballot. Adm #11 - for low income seniors who maintain long-term residency,Adm #9 for surviving spouses of military vets and first responders, Adm #2 veterans that are disabled and Adm#4 a change in how the homestead exemption is applied if your assessed value of your property increases. With one hand Florida's politicians give you a break with the proposed changes and with the other hand they take it away with an 10% yearly increase in your Citizen insurance rates. Sounds to me the Republican plan is to force the working people of this state and the retired people to sell their houses so that their rich friends can buy it all up for a bargain! The politicians in this state are NOT working for the citizens, they are working for the insurance companies and the developers!
