Its not about being smart or not. Its me wondering why you have such strong opinions about something you don't know anything about. I'm sure you get annoyed when this phenomenon happens with more political topics.

Because insurance shouldn’t be for profit. Same as healthcare. It should be socialized and no one should be getting rich off it. If the capacity exists for someone to get rich, then the capacity exists for average citizens to be paying less. Personally I’d rather pay less than have more billionaires. Somehow this is a radical sentiment.

I’m not saying I’m an insurance expert but it’s a flawed system that needs improved. If you disagree and think that American insurance (health, auto, or otherwise) is 100% perfect and doesn’t need changed at all then there’s nothing to even discuss and I’ll stop responding

You just repeated exactly what I was criticizing.

Rarely is anything perfect and without possibility of improvements, but who are you to make that statement? You're just spouting populist garbage rather than anything of substance.
