I would like to see a calculation of the added costs of goods and services and increased taxes that have resulted from the abuse of our legal system by trial lawyers and crooked judges.

"I would like to see a calculation of the added costs of goods and services and increased taxes that have resulted from the abuse of our legal system by trial lawyers and crooked judges."

Exactly! Would it not be extremely educational to the American public just how much "product liability" insurance costs add to the price of products or equipment?
How much more does a wheelchair cost because of product liability?
How much more does a doctor's bill cost? Or added cost to a hospital stay or operation because of added product liability costs to equipment and devices?
Does product liability add to the price of drugs? New drugs and older drugs that were sued?
How much more is your car, car-seat, washer & dryer, diswasher, and strollers and the list goes on and on...?
You don't want to be pregnant in Mississippi and you don't want to need a trauma center if you're injured in Nevada. Thank you trial lawyers and unlimited punitive damages for adding to the cost of everything we need to buy and causing everything we need to move or close down.
