People who are injured or mistreated should have recourse and should be compensated. No doubt about it. However, most of the time it could be done through arbitration at the State Board level or some other less expensive venue. Only a minority of cases needs to end up in the court system. I know. I think medicine is a special case as it is so complex you do need some limits.... your average jury just isn't qualified. I was just giving you a hard time. Still EVERYTHING would be cheaper if everything had tort damage limits. You can't let the pendulum swing too far the other way either.
