The big money guys getting rich off of non tort reform are the attorneys. The little guy gets screwed the worst of all. The last estimate that I saw attributed at least 20% of health care costs to litigation and related costs.

Another big joke is class action lawsuits against corporations by shareholders. In many cases it is like suing yourself and paying the lawyers a big fee for the priviledge.
