Mississippi's massive poverty is directly caused by exploitation of the good citizens of the Magnolia State by an entrenched, wealthy, corrupt lawyer elite.

No business in their right mind would locate to liability friendly Mississippi. Obstetricians and trauma care docs have been run out of the state by the shysters and their judges.

I hope Governor Barbour is capable of reform. The problem is that the Republicans are just as corrupt as the rats in Mississippi, so I wouldn't hold my breath for more tort reform.

My home state was quite poor long before the tort kings took root.

They have only exacerbated an existing wound and expolited an opening given them by a sympathetic state legislature and quite amenable jury pool.

Tort abuse is only one facet .

Republicans are never as corrupt as democrats. Too stupid.

As for NY, you also have a GOP governor, but both of our US Senators are GOP, whereas yall have the utter disgraces of Schumer and Hitlery.

No medical doctor in his right mind would open a practice in MS, but MS is getting new residents in the form of a "retired" medical doctor and his family soon = my family.
