How is tort reform, i.e. putting caps on damages, in any manner conservative?

It primarily benefits Big Business. Duh.

Right! Tort reform is NOT conservative in principle.

I am not for capping actual damages. Usually the discussion is about capping punitive damages that get awarded on top of actual compensatory damages. They can get to be outrageous.
