The Rats turned the lawyers loose on the medical profession to provide vast income to a major constituency and to begin the process of destroying healthcare so they could take it over. Significant tort reform would accomplish the same goal. But, of course, the Rats would not think of it. It does not serve their evil purposes.
The thing the political Dems have forgotten is that when all healthcare is run by the government one of their largest contributor groups—the tort lawyers— will be out in the cold because they won’t be able to sue the sovereign.
They might lose their support unless they can figure another target for them to sue with government support. Maybe non-green industries that don’t cater to man-made global warming.
I don’t think the ABA tort lawyers have snapped to this yet either. Aren’t they still supporting Obama and his plan to make health care a government enterprise.
