"Hearing rumors @WeAreFarmers might pull out of Florida,” Patronis tweeted Monday afternoon. “If that’s true my office is going to explore every avenue possible for holding them accountable. Don’t get to leave after taking policyholder money.”

What's he going to do? Have everyone in the office wag their fingers in Farmers' general direction?

"Nooo! You can't just use your Republican-given lax regulations to maximize profit for shareholders!"

I don't know that people understand just how important the government (and its predictability) matters to business.

They are in a hurricane area. Tornados, floods sink holes and a governor who likes to bankrupt businesses for spite.

If they are doing this to limit their exposure to losses, I get it.
