Isn’t America great? You make bad choices and can force others to pay for it. What a country!
Gee, and after all that extortion money the tobacco companies paid to the states.
Why not go for broke? Sue all the classmates who encouraged her to smoke with them because they were “cool”. What about the papermill manufacturer who sold the cartridge tubes? They knew they were making them for cigs. Let’s just sue everyone for our tough breaks in life....
Oh those evil white men.
Another reason why there are more lawyers in America than engineers .
Compensatory damages are supposed to reflect actual costs. This woman must have been worth a fortune.
This will have the effect of driving business offshore to places where lawyers are useless. Imagine a country whose only profitable business is stealing money from productive industry.
This kind of obscene crap must be stopped. Sniveling, whimpering scum with no responsibility, and their lawyers.
Boston jurors yelled “Death to personal morality and responsibility” as they did this. Idiots....enemies of our country too!
Personal responsibility is dead. People keep smoking BECAUSE THEY WANT TO SMOKE, not because they can’t stop. There are more ex-smokers than smokers.
Shouldn’t families of druggies be able to sue the drug dealers under this concept? Surely those addicts would have amounted to something in life except for the dealers.....
What about the Rat politicians that gave cigarettes to minority voters as incentive to get out and vote?
