Insurance makes nothing up. Insurance protects assets and transfers risk.

There are no lies.

There is no deceit.

Health insurance specifically spreads the risk of one individual among many others. Should you be in a catastrophic accident, my premiums will pay your bills. If you get cancer, my premiums will pay your bills. If I have surgery, your premiums pay my bills. We should all avoid financial risk where there are no positives, only negatives.

If your house burns to the ground, my premiums help rebuild it and replace everything inside.

If your dog attacks and paralyzes a child, my premiums pay for your liability.

Don't attack what you don't understand, especially if it is something absolutely necessary in today's world. If you don't agree, then do not get behind the wheel of your car. Or own a house. Or start your own company and have employees.
