If the federal government has been obligated to pay out and reimburse people who were severely injured or damaged from vaccines, why should be get any injections?

Injection injuries are exceedingly rare. And, because there is a great benefit to everyone around us, we want to ensure that anything that is unpredictable is adequately reimbursed and supported. Nothing we do in medicine is without risks. The damage done to individuals and society as a whole is greater by not developing hurd immunity through Injections.

Welcome to public health. Humans are incredibly bad at understanding risk off the top of the head. That’s why we’ve developed methods and statistics to try and understand what is best practice.
