    It is won't spread beyond the large cities. They are the only places where the fungus is welcome. I don't think will last in the cities all that long either. Chicago has already shown that they are fed up with it.

    Not sure exactly how indentured servants applies but maybe one could could draw some comparison. What many people do not understand or a. Eat is that insurance is not sold to make the policy holder rich or richer. What insurance is supposed to do is make the insured or third party whole. By that we mean that we the insurance company is obligated by insurance contract to restore you to the point that you were at before you suffered the loss. Example you have a 3 bedroom 1 and 1/2 bathroom older classic rooms Cape Cod or bungalow one car garage house and you suffer a total loss the insurance company is not going to build you a 4 bedroom 3 bath and1/2 bath sprawling open concept "bonus" room over the garages house or replace your aged Formica with quartz countertops with state of the art appliances. We will replace you House, period. If you talk the builder into additions we call betterments you pay not us we are not the Salvation Army.

    I hear you but even they would do well to rebuild elsewhere. It is a business issue not a political one.

    This sounds exactly like something top dems would do.

    Who can claim they care about America or Americans?

    Yes, there is that. The people who have left California are mostly conservatives, I think. Perhaps the it will work out that way.

    Of course it's a political issue.

    The damage to their business was entirely due to a political process they voted for.

    I have no sympathy for anyone that voted Democrat and got burned down.

    So the government fails to protect the businesses which results in the businesses being destroyed and then they demand they pay their taxes which is impossible since they are not making any money due to the fact they no longer have a business because the government sided with the terrorists.

    This must be that progressive utopia.

    I'm talking about the decision to rebuild and where to do it. Not political.

    If your business burned down for political reasons, I'd beg to disagree.

    The Left had a burning urge to assault, loot, riot and commit arson. And for 3 months they have loosed their darkness on their own Blue Cities, because those cities will make room for them to destroy.
