Why is it apparently cool and fine for insurance companies to spend countless billions, trillions of our money constantly buying ad time?

On every single professional sports game I’ve ever seen, every single show, every single channel. Isn’t this our fucking money you’re meant to give out should, god forbid, something happen?
Why is it even legal to do this? Blowing this money on CONSTANT, DUMB fucking little fucking cutesy fucking skits, not even trying to fucking pitch anything anymore, just burning money on TV and laughing at us while the fucking lemur does epic bants. it makes me so fucking sick, these people should be chained in the dungeons for the rest of their lives.
It’s illegal to not have car insurance so why the fuck do they think we need to see this constant fucking microwaved vomit fucking garbage every fucking second every fucking show every fucking channel??
thank you

Their primary goal is to make profit for investors. They kind of also sometimes help people.
They kind of also pay out on the services you pay them for, it's not helping, it's just an obligation they haven't managed to dodge.
It's almost like there should be a not for profit option, perhaps if there were some large group of people who worked for everyone, and we're controlled by some sort of elected governing body.
I have had this fantasy. All health insurers be required to be 501(c)29. The non-profit definition for health insurers under the ACA.
A lot of insurance companies—arguably most of the ones used—are not for profit: American Family, COUNTRY, generally Blue Cross Blue Shield, Liberty Mutual, Northwestern Mutual, any other company with "mutual" in the name, USAA, Farmers, State Farm, Progressive, etc.
Hmm.. part of me is not convinced that those companies aren't benefitting in some way.. I mean, the employees do have to be paid don't they? What about the CEO? Is it just a passion project for them?
Yeah, obviously employees have to be paid like with anywhere. Those are business expenses. But at the end of the day, the amount of money they charge has to be equal to the amount it costs them.
You're right about that, I'm more weirded out by the salaries of the CEOs compared to the other employees. According to google the CEO of American family has a salary of around a million a year so.. someone is profiting from it.
The term non-profit just (to me) almost loses meaning when it makes people filthy rich but you're right, they are the lesser evil for the time being.
Really? Do you have a source for that?
For which ones? Most are mutual insurance companies, where any profit has to legally be paid back to the customers.
That is awesome thanks! I was unaware.
