This may come as a shock to you, but insurance companies have a lot more money than most individuals who are harmed on the job and will spend some of it if it will ultimately save them money.

Plaintiff: "any plain reading of the agreement stipulates that I am to be compensated X if I am injured on the job in a manner that results in me being unable to continue my job" Insurance company: "Clearly this video of this man washing his car over a 4 hour period, cleverly edited to pretend that he is taking just 15 minutes to wash the entire thing, is indication that he is capable of climbing a 100 foot ladder while hauling 60 pounds of equipment, even though he has four fractured vertebrae, had a surgically reattached lower extremity, doesn't have the core muscle strength to balance on a ladder, and can't lift 15 pounds without extreme pain" You're just beclowning yourself at this point. This is an every day occurrence in court systems around the country, but do continue to tell me how I don't know what I'm talking about because the system is virtuous.
