Is an insurance company allowed to charge different premiums based on one's race? If not, why are they allowed to charge different premiums based on gender? Both are biological (skin color vs sexual organs).

Probably because they charge women less. Nobody gives a crap if they charge white guys more.

I think they charge blacks more because they steal alot of cars which drives up rates.

They can charge based upon zip code which says more about a person's driving and risk of comprehensive loss than the color of ones skin.thePITman;898704 wrote:Is an insurance company allowed to charge different premiums based on one's race?
