The way I see this working well ingame is that you can offer the insurace to your corp or alliance members, and allow larger payouts for more expensive ships. If you see that the player has a history of abusing insurance contracts, you would know to increase his premium, or deny him coverage.
Like a Ship Replacement Program ? As run by most PvP corps with a functional industrial backbone ?
Rewarding failure only produces more failure.....Thus why i have never been for ''ship replacement''
However, if i am running a fleet and someone loses a ship because of my call then i will replace their ship because i set them up to be killed. Which doesn't happen often so its ok. This does not include someone in my fleet being completely ******ed and getting themselves blown up due to lack of comprehension.
Only way to teach someone to pvp is to make them:
1) learn to fly the ships they can afford
2) Learn to fly effectively
3) Know when it is time to GTFO
4) If they die to get over it and try again

I love threads like these. I remember the april fools dev blog stating they were going to insure modules and stuff. Now people are actually asking for it??!?!?
Easy way round the problem, don't fly t2 if you can't afford to replace it.
As for point 3 in the OP, of course the big alliances have all the money making sewn up, that's supposed to happen. If you want resources take them, if you can't take them due to overwhelming resistance then that's your problem not the game mechanics.

I think insurance companies in EVE should work the same as they do in real life. As such, they should offer 100% insurance on ships and modules, but it should cost maybe 90% of the value of the ship + modules. Of course this would depend on your previous history of ship losses and insurance claims, but generally for most pilots insurance would be utterly pointless, even for T1 ships. Worse, once you took out a policy on a ship, I doubt the insurance company would look kindly on you refitting your ship with more expensive modules, and you definitely wouldn't get any compensation for them.
As for making money in EVE, when it was first launched a few million seemed like a lot, but now it only gets interesting once you start talking in billions (which a mission runner can make in a day or two anyway).
