Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

To be fair, it's entirely possible that they've been refused insurance. My relatives near water cannot get insured for anything less than a small fortune. Insurance companies know that climate change is making disasters more likely, and they're adapting. Hell, I had my auto insurance literally drop me over wild fires here in California (despite me living in an urban area that will never have one), and that's literally mandatory coverage to drive.
What company? Name and shame
