3 Cars were stolen recently in our neighborhood. The criminals are free to continue and steal while everyone else pays for these losses.

I've hit 5 deer in total in two of my cars in the span of 9 years that have added to about $17,000 in damage repairs. Also, another $3,000 in other animal damage (a mouse and one of my pups). So, I've pretty much broken even for the past 11 years or so. I've never had any push back for any of the repairs.
Ah... so that makes sense... then you are the leech and I am the payer. You use and I and others pay for you. Now it's clear... my proposal would make it very costly for you, wheras my rates wouldnt go up seemingly 30% for no reason of my own... like I said, nothing for us to argue here.

Dude you make no sense at all. You can't even keep a consistent argument. You don't want "discrimination" but are now whining that he's a "leech" because he's hit half the deer in town. Maybe his rate IS more than yours BECAUSE he's hit a bunch of deer. Maybe the insurance knows that people who live in the middle of nowhere hit more deer than people in NYC.

Seems you're just upset because YOU don't know the exact formulation used and all the factors they take into account. So it SEEMS random when in fact it's risk based just like your earth shattering solution.

It only requires liability so when you wreck someones car they are not left hanging.

Personally I would love if car insurance were cheaper, hell I want it to be free and I think everyone should be a billionaire. Unfortunately I live in reality.

But if you never get in an accident or do anything dangerous, you wouldn't get caught, so you don't need it, amiright?

Incorrect again - any insurance company reports you the moment you cancel or don't carry insurance directly to the state of FL.

So move to a state that allows self insurance.

Greed, inflation, various damaging weather events over the years, continuing rising costs of auto repair (EVs will make things worse given the rate they are easily totaled), labor costs/shortages, etc. have all played into these insane home and auto insurance rate increases. There's no smoking gun.

In the end, the insurer and the insured will eventually have to come to some sort of equalization, because like many things that have greatly outpaced inflation, this level of increase is simply not sustainable. Too many companies have enjoyed the profitability of COVID and they now expect that level of profitability. A majority of companies are guilty of this. The consumer is also guilty by believing they would have an abundance of income and lived beyond their means. Let's face it, a majority of us live a FAR more fruitful life in terms of the "things" we had growing up. We are just as much to blame.

Not sure what good that will do. They should be asking the manufacturers to add security features instead of going after the customers for buying their garbage.
The correct solution is to deal with the criminals harshly. Criminals will find a way to steal cars if the reward is greater than the risk. You cut off their hand for stealing a car, they stop stealing cars. Exaggerating here, but the fact is that if people knew they were be stuck in prison for decades in the cold ass tundra with bare minimums and their life was gonna be ruined by it and they might even be exiled to someplace even worse, the risk goes way up and they stop commiting crimes.

But when they know they probably won't get charged because a progressive DA isn't going to charge them because of whatever B's reason, they're free to keep committing crimes until they're stopped.

Insurance companies...biggest scam going. They take our money, but if we need to file a claim they do anything & everything to not pay.

Why don't we get some sort of refund for not filing claims?

F these giant companies

I think Allstate used to do that. If you went like 3 years without a claim they sent you a check every quarter. It was nowhere near what you paid in obviously, more like a safe driving discount, they just paid you it back. Then some of them started doing like deductible forgiveness if you didn't have claims for long enough too.

While I understand the ease of saying "these big insurance companies are all colluding to keep rates high and make crazy money", one has to wonder why aren't there non profit insurance groups like the credit unions are to banks? Surely if it was a feasible thing, someone would have done it and made a major dent in the insurance industry. To me it says that the profit portion of the premiums just isn't that large, and they wouldn't really be a competitive option.

That's a very simplistic answer. There's plenty of greedy non profits out there, so if it was really greed someone would have a non profit insurance company so they could all pay themselves exorbitant salaries as part of a nonprofit. That's how a LOT of big non profits are.
