One of Bush;'s daughter's will get car-smaashed by a drunk-driving Exxon truck driver steering an 18-wheeler through a red light, causing Bush's daughter to need life support another 50 years, and his daughter gets is about $200 thousand.
That won't evebn cover his daughter's lawyer fees.
The tort reform was just corporate prectionism from everyone and eveything---it's criminal.
6. I've been a plaintiff's tort lawyer for 23 of my 27 years of practicing
law and it just keeps getting worse. I yearn for the days when I read cases about how the law was to be liberally construed in favor of the worker. Time and time again I now face laws and decisions that favor the corporations over the individual and it just keeps getting worse.
I tell juries that we are told that we can't put a price on a human life, that a human life is priceless. I also tell them that if they can't put a price on human life, they are saying that a human life is worthless.
That's what the corporations want us to think. That a human life is worthless.
