I work with one , she seemed to be of a positive opinion on Russia . And I admit that I am fairly ignorant of Philippines , I think I saw a movie with subs once . She voted Trump and dislikes China . We get along . That ' s as far as my knowledge of Philippines goes . <| sep |> How so ? He ' s given up executive control over it . Not sure why he needs to sell it . <| sep |> Ignore the Lyft thing , you aren ' t getting them to pay for it . It ' s a gig economy job , you aren ' t an employee of Lyft and you don ' t have a real business on your own . It ' s the risk you take seeking money this way . It sounds like you were severely underinsured . Liabilityonly coverage when you rely on driving for your livelihood is irresponsible . In the future , don ' t skimp on car insurance , particularly if you are relying on using your car to make ends meet via Lyft . You can always try to file a claim in small claims court or get a lawyer and try to press this , but your claims are such a low $ amount this is likely to be more effortcost than it is worth . That ' s why you properly insure yourself , to protect you from getting screwed in situations like this .
