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.

Sources and Links:

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.
