Many many years ago in Chicago there was this certain group of people that would walk into the local businesses and tell them they had to pay for protection. Eventually there were charges of racketeering, profiteering, and extortion.
Now they just simply call this legalized extortion, insurance, and the mob is now simply agents, and on the other side you have the scumbag lawyers that are responsible for the extremely high rates we all pay and all the stupid little clauses written in the fine print
Great thing about today's rules is "you do not have to purchase" the coverage you "hate" so bad. Just save your money and pay "cash" for everything. No one will be shaking you down making you purchase "protection" you don't want. I bet you would "gripe" if all the Ins. Co. went out of business or better yet, "refuse to write coverage for you" yet Insure your neighbor? Also, all policies are written in "plain language". If you cannot understand it, ask any 10 yr. old and they can explain it to you. 21 yrs. of P&C Ins. Sales fuels my post.
We are required by law to have a minimum liability insurance so it doesnt matter how you pay for something you are still forced to pay for "protection"
