Why are the lawyers the problem? They are just providing a service people want. Free market and all that, right?
I love the nonesense so many "Conservatives" spout. No regulations by government because you should sue in court for any reddress of wrongs needed ... BUT, your payout in a lawsuit must be strictly limited to keep insurance costs down. If you want to limit payouts, then expect heavy regulation.
There's a simple legal reform that doesn't take a constitutional amendment that could solve any problems from the legal side - LOSER PAYS ALL COSTS. But I don't see Doctors campaigning for that, because I suspect a lot of malpractice cases are cut and dried. When the doctor amputates the wrong leg, its pretty clear he's at fault.
