		<description>REGARDING:
&quot;Just keep sucking up the republican by-lines and remain in your cocoon all warm and snug while you get taken.&quot;

Okay, I yield to your superior knowledge of what is a public adjuster. I admit I was thinking that a public adjuster was the insurance companiy representative going to a person who has suffered loss and getting him to accept a settlement less than will actually be needed to make him whole. 

I was wrong and ignorant.

Instead, for maybe a twenty-five percent cut, the public adjuster tries to get as much money out of the insurance company as possible. If I were a Republican, this would surely sound like a good business to be in. With my new understanding, I can see how the companies would hate to have them represent the insured for the very reason you pointed out: the more the insured gets, the more he gets.

It is interesting how some instantly jump on the thought that anyone who ever disagrees with them must be a Republican, satanist, Liberal or Communist -- whatever they despise. I&#039;ve pointed out before that simply insulting those with whom you disagree is counterproductive since it makes it harder for them to listen to you but I doubt it can be helped. 

We are what we are and most are satisfied with that.

		<description>How intelligent, since public adjusters get their money as a percentage of what the home owner gets why would they opt to get them the least.  You are brilliant!! Just keep sucking up the republican by-lines and remain in your cocoon all warm and snug while you get taken.</description>

		<description>REGARDING:
&quot;This is a republican Fla house and senate working for the insurance companies instead of you the tax payer.&quot;

Let&#039;s see now. They thought adjusters were taking advantage of those suffering loss by paying them off quickly but possibly for less than they would need. 
That is a heartless House of Representatives and Senate?

I know some think the Republicans just sit back and try to think of the most evil things they can do, but does that make sense here?
It reads like an attempt to protect people even if it winds up costing the insurance companys more.

		<description>I&#039;m with you Kathy!  I used a public adujuster after Ivan.  If I had settled for just what my insurance company thought I should get, I&#039;d be paying for the repairs today and sitting and sleeping on the floor because the contents of my house would not have been replaced due to insufficient claims payment.

I see public adjusters as a tax adjuster working for YOU not the insurance company.  Of course you are going to get better service like that!</description>

		<description>This is a  republican Fla house and senate working for the insurance companies instead of you the tax payer.  Public adjusters work to get you what you deserve to repair damages.  You can get as many estimates as you want and it means nothing to insurance companies.  They want you to PAY large PREMIUMS and pay you back nothing in COVERAGE. The republican run Florida said okay you pack my suitcase with dough and I will make sure your suitcase stays full of their dough.</description>

		<description>I know we all want insurance rates down but I don&#039;t think this was the best way to do it. The best thing to do is to get at least 3 estimates from licensed/bonded repair people before signing anything. It may take time but it also protects you from bogus unncessary repairs or bad jobs repairing damage.</description>
