"NEW YORK (Reuters) - Advisen Ltd. on Tuesday estimated worldwide insurance and reinsurance losses related to the three major hurricanes that hit the United States this year would amount to $57.6 billion, making the cumulative catastrophe losses the largest on record."

Insurance costs? Who the eff cares? I wonder if this is some kind of pretext to screwing people who have already suffered through disaster; who have paid their premiums.
Boy, the focus on the profit margins and such during the holiday season really puts into focus the priorities that our society deems important.
