###This is NOT the way to resolve the issue of tort reform###
I agree - I buy bad motor oil for my car and the engine blows, I should recieve some form of compensation.
I get a undertested drug and am incapcipated I should be compensated also.
you need some mechanisim to keep the drug companies honest.
I like the limitation idea on the lawyers take to keep them from raiding companies like the drug,tobaccoand food companies like Mcdonalds just because they have more money than they do.
Even if weve empowered FMOA (Federal Motor Oil Agency) with the authority to micro-regulate engine oils, assuming they had the same history of being 90% fraudulent like drugs.
I see that the cost of bringing a new drug to market is $1.7 billion now. At some point, unless negligence or criminality is proven, I think its just our own tough luck that bad things happen to us.
