Leave the 40% insurance but get rid of all other insurance. You get something back but not the whole amount which would lead to combat meaning something other than a moral victory.
Also make sure as well, that insurance for implants does not get introduced. If it does the next they will be asking for is module insurance and then we may as well just have ships respawn fully fitted in station!!

I wouldnt mind making insurance more costly for PvP players other high risk players.
As the majority of players that call for this are of this profession I cant see that they would in reality dislike this.
I fit none of the preconcieved factions and you would think with my poxy wallet I would want all the benifits going but I don't.
You say its the PvPer that want insurance changed to make combat more exciting, well then why would player in Empire need insurance, they have so little risk anyway that its pointless.
As for 0.0 miners I guess it is them who want insurance the most as they feel its thier right to go out into 0.0 and take a piece of the pie without the risk of too much loss.
I say get rid of all insurance and make the player who risk 0.0 have the risk and the player in Empire cary on reasonably risk free.

Ok instead of us goin gon about why we should get rid/change insurance, lets get it from the flip side.
Why do you need to keep insurance as it is, giving what line of business you are in and what the usual sec systems you work in?
This will give us on the for changes side to see why you realy need it to stay the same.

NPC hunting in 0.0 and PvP. Only problem I have in NPC hunting is landing on top of the spawn  ...they don't like me joinig their orge. And a little mining in a .5 system to get Veld and Scord with little risk.
Main reason I lose ships? PvP and instalocking NPC's. One is my fault, other is faulty game mechanics. But I usually pay for insurance and don't use the basic 40%...even with premium I lose isk, just as Siddy outlined.
Ok now without trying to pry too deep into your income, what would you roughly make a week doing what you do?

Hand all insurance over to player corps to run - that'll make things interesting 
This would be a cool idea.
Although I can't see many corps insuring any alliance war ships, unless they premiums where huge.
Although I think its along the same thinking of making mid sec space policed by the players.

Now I am quoting myself. 
But anyway, the synic in me thinks you earn at least enough to cover what you may lose if you happened to get insta kicked by the rats?

Not much atm...maybe 1 mil a day . Still rusty from my break from the game
So would you say you fall into the catagory of a players that wish's to go and play with the big boys and big toys but do not have all the skills atm to do so?
You happily go and put yourself and ship at risk knowing that there is insurance there to back any mistakes?
This in turn making 0.0 not the danger ground to go out and feel like you have achieved but a training ground where you can live semi risk free?
1 million a day, you can make that hands down in a .4 system on bounty and drops.
