George Will on "This Week" is being an idiot again.
He brings up the issue of buying insurance across state lines. That Geico and others advertise.

So insurance companies don't sell auto insurance based on the insured's location. I guess he never figured out why they need to know where he lives first plus other information before determining the premiums.

1. Apart from his being a Cubs fan / baseball fan, I've been unable to
discover any redeeming features to George Will over many decades.

2. George's redeeming qualities
The only one I can see is that he looks exactly the same now as he did forty years ago.

3. His bow ties have been cutting off the circulation to his brain.
You car insurance premiums most definitely are affected by where you live. You will pay more if you live in a "bad" neighborhood, or if you don't park in a garage, or if you drive a longer distance to work.

But then a guy like Will probably has other people take care of menial stuff like driving and paying insurance premiums so he doesn't have to clutter his brilliant patrician mind.

5. Again?
He's always been an idiot - and he's habitually wrong on all the issues. Just because he acts like he knows what's going on doesn't mean he has a clue. ever.
