Did they really think we would be OK with that? I haven't been on vacation in 5 years.

Same here. Try owning a family business and taking a vacation. Our vacation is coming home every year to work the GAF.
Read the justification from a NY Insurance Commission member @ the end of the article, his comment really will steam you.
