What are your feelings on tort reform? In my opinion it's just all a load of shit that takes a dump on our already sketchy legal system. It takes the rights of the people out of court, and replaces it with laws that favor those at fault versus the victims.
I remember the hot coffee case and all the jokes being made. Then when you see what happened to the woman and how McDonalds had hundred of complains and hundred of burns because they recklessly kept the coffee at a temperature that was capable of giving 3rd degree burns in seconds and undrinkable and always kept way above what the manual said to keep it at, it makes me wonder exactly why were we making fun of the woman and dumping millions into advertising "frivolous" law cases as bad for Americans. Is it really bad for us if say Chevy makes a defective car and someone almost dies ends up disfigured for life and then sues Chevy and is awarded 20m for medical bills or life but then tort reform steps in and cuts her 20m into 800k. (Just an example and for some states 800k is beyond the maximum) how does this help the public at all? All this does is hurt those that could some day end up hurt in a hospital with an at fault company.
