YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY JUST SCREWED YOU & AND YOU NEED AN ATTORNEY?

Florida Homeowner's Insurance Crises News

Please also see Paul Angel's http://screwedbyinsurance.com/


http://www.antishyster.com/


Our Legislatures and Judiciaries are being bought by the Insurance Cartel. Ignore the hype of the front page, and look at the actual proposed CA legislation at www.jail4judges.com


THIS IS IT! I've actually found one.
The ONLY insurance company from which you can expect a fair deal (so far)
Auto Owners Insurance
If they screw up, there is no hope, excepting a domestic insurrection
that would put the French Revolution in the category of Sunday play
in the park. Kill 'em all; let God sort 'em out.
PS: I have no affiliation with this company except having just switched coverage to them. Other than that they don't even know I exist. Given the racketeering competition, let them survive, prosper and live long on their moral standards. If anybody has complaints about them please email me; I'm sticking my researched neck out here.
OK - I stuck my neck out, and have now received two emails indicating that "Auto Owners" probably behaves in just they same way as all the others. Nobody is safe. The RICO revolution that I expected has not happened, and my experience says that this is mostly due to the fact that most attorneys are nothing more than paper pushing wimps.
Please take note of the idiot Californians who knuckeled under with the insurance cartels's propaganda on propositions 30 and 31. Like it or not, our country as a federal republic is a lost cause. I hope everybody likes the ensuing totalitarian Nazism.

RICO Pro Se,
An Amateur's primer on filing against one's insurer under RICO, in light of the January 20, 1999 Supreme Court decision in
Humana v Forsyth.



The people of the United States are being lied to every day by politicians and by the media that there is a GREAT problem with policy holders defrauding their insurance carriers. Assuming this problem actually exists, and in all probability it does, it involves pocket change next to the horrors, fraud and and outright theft that is routinely and calculatedly perpetrated by the entire insurance industry on captive policy holders who, practically speaking, have a gun held to their heads by their State Governments, while their beloved Federal Government looks on silently. The State regulatory agencies brought into being by McCarren-Fergusson are almost all bought by the insurance companies; whole State governments have been bought. State Judges have been bought, and even Congressional respresentatives and Senators have been bought. Whatever insurance you think you have been paying for is nonexistent. Whatever legal or even moral protection you think you have from your totally corrupt government is equally nonexistent. Insurance companies are quite literally getting away with systematic murder of their policyholders, corruption of our government, destruction of the medical profession and castration of the legal profession. The specifics of that outrageous and malevolent plague is the subject of this set of webpages.

   Go visit -- we're far from the only ones and this form of citizen exposure

   The site is Canadian, but many companies that operate here operate there.
   Besides, this industry is corrupt on a Worldwide basis -- we just don't have
   time to cover it all -- but the rotten bad-faith practices of this industry
   are a technology of crime that is global in scope.  The same dirty tricks

State Farm has attempted to use alleged "scientific" experts to call their policy holders liars in court. There experts routinely dispute that low impact collisions can cause injuries claimed. These experts are, in fact, effectively, employees of State Farm and will say what they are told to say. This is nothing more than an extension of the Medical Whore Principle that all insurance companies have been using for years.

In disputation of State Farm's new calculated method of attempted fraud, see the following professional bibliography.

	     A Circuit Court ruling that permitted Paul Revere Insurance
	Co. to deny disability payments to an AIDS patient has been 
	reversed by the Hawaii Supreme Court. The case involved a dentist 
	who died in September, nearly 12 years after the insurance
