some Washington policymakers are taking a fresh look at a money-making idea

Governments don't make money, they are given money by the governed to run the government. As government becomes more and more tyrannical, they confiscate money because they want more than the governed want to give.

Saying that government makes money is ludicrous.

I propose that the government take 25% of all awards given in trial attorney litigation cases. After all, the taxpayers pay for the infrastructure of the judicial system that allows lawsuits to be filed and tried. That way we all profit when some inane lawsuit goes forward. If the administration is going to push for socialized medicine, and own car companies, why not skim a little from the trial lawyers. It would only be ‘fair’.
