[Conservative til I die]

When stupid people started using a hair dryer while in the bathtub, laws were written to place warnings on the hair dryer -- they were not written to make the behavior illegal. The only reason the law was written was to protect the manufacturer from the previously successful lawsuits. So, tell me all about a free people not needing all these laws.

So by your logic, we should make federal laws requiring fast food joints to post their nutritional info to protect from stupid fat peoples' lawsuits.

You really think you're a small goverment conservative?

No, I think we should reform our tort laws to "loser pays". That should stop the frivolous lawsuits.

Absent that, you have a better way for manufacturers to avoid these suits from stupid greedy people and their slimy greedy lawyers?

Didn't think so.
