I think this whole government-by-lawsuit business is waaaay out of hand. People file lawsuits to stop construction projects because of 'endangered species', people file disability, employment discrimination lawsuits, etc.. This is no way to run a country, having a bunch of self-appointed busybodies getting rich off of others.

It's bad enough when government bureaucrats stick their noses in their business, now we 'deputize' every idiot with a lawyer to harass everyone for some tiny thing. It is the worst, most arbitrary, unfair way to run a government and is against the idea of equal treatment under the law.

I’ve got one for you. An employee gets fired for being a worthless piece of crap. He calls OSHA and lodges a complaint that he was fired for making a safety complaint. OSHA says pay the guy $8,000. It would have cost more than that to fight so we paid. I had a multi-page document proving the allegations were baseless. OSHA never even looked at them. It’s nothing but legalized extortion.
