According to a study conducted in collaboration with the James Madison Institute, the Competitive Enterprise Institute and Heartland Institute, Florida gets an ‘F’ grade on a national insurance report card based on a study outlining the state’s insurance ills.
The state earned the dismal rating – the lowest possible – after a national study compared the insurance environments in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Only four other states fared as bad.
Fla. Rep. Dennis Ross, R-Lakeland, and Fla. Rep. Don Brown, R-DeFuniak Springs, fittingly unveiled the report card midday on Monday in Tallahassee while Florida senators grilled insurance executives in another wing of the capitol complex.

Our Gov Crist in my opinion is doing nothing to help the people in Florida to reduce home insurance, now he want to ruin un-employment and change the rule so the state does not have to pay, many people are going broke because the Gov Bush and now Gov Crist does nothing to help Florida people, because of the high home insurance and when he changes the un-employment rules, Florida will be the number one state in the nation for forclosures, unemployment, if he does not do something soon, Florida will be the talk of the nation, I would like to hear from more people in Florida, do we need a new Gov that can do something for the people of Florida?
I honestly thought Gov Crist would do something I voted for him, looks like a made a major mistake

I have heard Gov Christ is allowing Citizens Insurance to go up 40% over a period of time. Is this true?
People cannot afford it anymore and Florida is in the worst economic depression I have ever seen in my life time
The change in allowing people to opt out of sinkhole insurance was worthless.
I give Florida an F for the home insurance a
If the State thinks we have problems now, wait until the home insurance goes up again
Simply put, Gov Christ will see the worst economic depression of Florida in anyones lifetime if he does not act and drop home insurance rates. there has to be a way to do it
Our rates need to drop not go up
Thank you
