Reply to comment by LibraryBiggles in Auto Insurance Rate Increases 35% Seemingly Overnight, Allegedly Due To PA Rate Hike by Mother_Show8790

Lol, I heard the same thing from my insurance company (Allstate). My 2008 Honda Civic had its rates go up because "it's old and more likely to have mechanical issues." And yet when I purchased a brand new car, the rates went up again because "it's new and we don't know how reliable it is."

Yes, a very misleading case based on one idiot lawmaker flapping his gums. Which the media was happy to run with.

That in fact was a vote for a state program which would have supplemented the existing federal program, to cover kids in families that are between 130%-185% of federal poverty levels. Kids in families below 130% of the poverty level in North Dakota are still going to get a free lunch at school (and free breakfast as well), just like they do in every school (public or private) in the good old USA. Families that are below 200% also qualify for reduced price meals at school.

Honestly depends on what you get. I went from 2010 ford fusion( paid off and on limited tort), to a 2020 Subaru forester (full coverage and lowered my deductibles) and saved $10-15 a month. We traded that in for a 2022 forester wilderness and it went down another $10 a month.
