Why do you assume that someone pays for a natural event not caused by mankind? When a road is blocked by a lava flow, eventually the highway department will cut through the lava and reopen the road, so that is paid by taxpayers. Depending on the homeowner's insurance policy, that may or may not pay for fire damage from a fire started by a lava flow. Other damage, such as earthquake damage from an eruption, would depend on whether the owner has eartquake insurance.
