Any insurance, be it car, house, life. It's all scams. You're essentially paying someone legally to bet on your behalf, and than getting a pittance of a payout. That's ONE problem. The more annoying problem, is rapid hyper inflation in whatever industry is touched by insurance. Car insurance for example, a small light bulb used to cost a few cents to replace. Now, you need to buy the entire casing, the wiring, and it costs 1200$ not including labor. This is because you only pay the deductible, so everyone and their mother can skimp from the top. Same with homeowners insurance. A simple home inspection is 500$. In 1955, getting a deed/house title notarized and approved was 1$ …. I know because I saw a historical document to that effect. Thanks jews! A true blessing to the world /s

I would be interested in a source on that one. Also, I'm not sure how that would pan out for auto insurance. It doesn't seem very Amish to need auto insurance for a car.

It mostly applies to homeowners insurance. The reason for the exemption is because they live in a secular community, and the community pledges that if the house burns down they would all come together and rebuild it.
