> Did you know your insurance company is getting rich off your premiums? Are you going to stop paying them and get out of this "greedy" arrangement that takes from poor you to rich them?

You chose the worst example possible. For profit insurance is a scam, as the insurance company ultimate goal is to pay the minimum amount possible for claims, even after people have diligently paid very expensive premiums. It is one of the most rigged system, which amazingly is culturaly acceptable. (I am sure it is going to go the way of the "private firefighters" in the future).

Do you use insurance?

Here is an example of exchanging risk voluntarily that I don't fits your comment. Farmers will often make deals to sell their goods for a fixed amount before planting. The other side of that deal is a futures contract where investors speculate on commodity value. The farmers accept lower returns while the investors may get fabulously wealthy. Are the farmers being scammed?
