But you still haven't made a case that the insurance industry is providing any
"better" service to anybody other than you.

Especially when you consider that you will probably have insurance until
you exceed whatever quota they decide to grant you in mistakes.

I wouldn't want to base my decision on a Dentist/Doctor/whatever based on
if a guy had insurance.

I was hit by an old lady with glasses so thick it was amazing she could
even wear them, come to think of it she wasn't. Another hack at
insurance, she just had 3 previous accidents and still had coverage, I
don't buy the insurance/private industry taking care of things. They
won't until after x amount of events and I don't want to be that event...

Look how well private industry did at the beginning of the industrial
revolution, a remarkable track record of humanity don't you think?
