> i'm kinda creeped out by car insurance payments. it just feels less about protecting other drivers and more about enriching the insurance companies.

Yeah, me too! And health and homeowners insurance while we're at it. All systems seemingly meant to exploit statistics for the betterment of us all...and yet the 20 most expensive homes in my city growing up were owned by insurance execs... What an oddity!

It's easy to profit when citizens are forced by government to pay you in order for them to do their business.
