Rioters stupidly justified their damage by pointing to 'insurance'
By Andrea Widburg
Even as the rioters in Minneapolis and other cities savaged businesses, they claimed that they weren't doing anything wrong because insurance companies would come in and save the day. The fact that these leftists had such faith in a capitalist institution would have been charming were it not for the fact that they were wrong. For most of those people whose livelihoods these little Marxists destroyed, there is no insurance coming to save the day.
A superb illustration of this "the insurance will pay" mindset comes from a video in which Kaitlin Bennett interviews, and challenges, two young Black Lives Matter–supporters. The young woman does most of the talking, while her boyfriend, with the earring, the carefully arranged puff of hair, and the artfully unbuttoned shirt, listens supportively. They're so focused on "feelings" that they cannot comprehend notions such as reason, the rule of law, or a functioning society. And then there's that insurance point.
