Insurance vs The NRA


Listen Later

How has the NRA impacted insurance? And why are insurers being asked to regulate the gun industry?

Welcome to the Insurance vs History Podcast! In this episode, I try and tackle the NRA's impact on the insurance industry, as well as discuss a new wrinkle in the discussion of gun safety: asking the insurance industry to take a regulatory role.

Note: This is only a selection. There was a LOT here, and I read a lot of stuff from "both sides of the aisle" so to speak. I tried to include articles with the most facts and not as many opinions or with more insurance explanations. The books were the best of what I read; the book by Adam Winkler was probably the most opinion neutral.
