So we must pay ourselves for broken windows and crashed car windows all of it or our rates will go up or we will be cancelled. This is logic. If we had this happen well we would just pay ourselves because of the Insurance. People on a fixed budget can't afford to do this all of the time with no assistance. Retirees unprotected and childless retirees no one to help. I just wanted to say this and say I do care.
