> And what the OP is pointing out is that if your injury is $30K, insurance covers nothing, because the premium + deductible is $40K.
The point of insurance is to mitigate risk. If you think you have enough money to cover your risk, there's no reason to buy insurance.
The sleight of hand here is first complaining that you did not incur enough hazards to offset the risk premium and then citing this as a reason the risk premiums should not exist. Where is the story of the family being weighed down by bills? Or of not getting physical therapy after an injury and having permanent, income-reducing disabilities?
