In regards to ballot measure 42, when Lars Larson was accused of choosing to be a media gadfly rather than doing better research to find the truth in order to help fellow Oregonians -or even his own grandmother on a fixed income- decide how to vote, Lars response was, "you could be right" Furthermore, Larson agreed that insurance companies may not have any substantiating evidence to prove their claims that poor credit and higher claims have any correlation.

You are using straw man arguments in your stance against measure 42. Insurance companies already are saying "contact us, we can get you substancially lower rate, you can talk to a "liv e agent to explain your life situation," (State Farm, Progressive and Geico, yet they all still use credit scores) so that one doesn't fly. There isn't a single study out there that shows ANY correlation between low credit scores and higher claims. Plus, people with good credit do not pay substancially lower rates than people with average credit scores yet people with low credit scores pay substancially higher rates than people with average credit scores. Insurance companies will not raise the rates of anyone in Oregon if the ballot measure passes (anymore than they can get away with doing on a normal basis), they just won't be charging excessive rates to people with low credit scores or refusing them service. If you really cared about your fellow Oregonians, instead of wanting to be a "radio personality," you'd do the research and let them know this measure is good for them and their pocket book. You'd pretend it was for your grandma and child on a fixed income, living in a part of Oregon without any public transportation and needing to get to work with the cheapest amount of insurance possible. Instead, you pick a hot topic and, like the media gadfly you are, you pick your buzz words and have diarrhea of mouth. Shame on you!
