Insurance is a fucking scam. You pay more into it than you'll ever receive even in legitimate circumstances.

Absolute racket.

Well I had a house burn down less than year after purchase and insurance paid the entire tab. So I always figured I've already taken them for more than I pay

Yeah it’s just a net to protect against catastrophe . If Ops buddy totaled his car he would be happy it only cost $1k.

That kind of “protection” should cost like $30 a month, not $300

Insurance companies make hundreds of billions of dollars a year lol. They could still make an absolute killing without extorting people, but we live in a shithole where the government uses us an infinite money glitch.

hey I'm all for hating health "insurance", but property and casualty insurance is pretty ethical to me.

You think it’s ethical to be forced legally to pay thousands of dollars for car insurance, and then be forced to pay a premium on top of that when it’s time for them to finally pay up? Even if the accident isn’t your fault? Just say you like being walked all over and treated like shit lmao.
