Yesterday I watched a lawyer for Allstate try to take the position that an illegally parked very heavy moving truck that had destroyed a homeowner's sewer pipe was not at all liable for damages because the movement of the truck compacted dirt when it went over the sewer pipe. Causes resulting from compacted dirt were not covered by the insurance policy under article 5: the word "pressure" was used in tandem with other words like "earthquake" and "lava".

Even more astonishing is that the judge in the case had to think about whether the insurance company was in the right!

This is tantamount to saying that any trespassing, illegally parked, hauling heavy vehicle is in the right & on the side of the law when it comes to destroying someone else's property!

Incredible.

I looked at that lawyer. She makes a lot of money from that company and she seems very proud of the fact that she's one of those lawyers against homeowners, specifically homeowners who might be in that murky, unlucky position of the "earth movement clause." I thought she must be insane. What if an airplane landed in her backyard and shook the ground so much that her sewer pipes, gas lines and water lines broke and then her house foundation crumbled and her house collapsed. She would just be fine and smiling and glad about all the hard work she has done trying to deny coverage for this kind of thing?

One thinks of court as rational, but I left it yesterday thinking it was an insane asylum.

And then I came home to art, beauty and a reverence for brotherhood, goodwill, peace and justice. While she has go to work every day to battle for immoral and unjust positions and causes, to sell her soul so extremely to make money, I do not and felt an incredible sense of lightness. I am on the right path.
