Insurance companies are the scum of the earth. I'm sure Big Daddy Gov will put them in their place. /s

They are scum of the earth because they take advantage of their position to extract as much money from their customers and then deny legit claims by default and make making a claim as much of a pain in the ass for the policy holder as possible. But this is just standard insurance practice, if you don't want people looking at your stuff, don't ask them to insure it. Often a luxury only the rich can afford, but that's a separate problem.

The worst part is if the company fucks you, too bad so sad. But if you fuck them? Welcome to prison.
