Wow, arguing against Tort Reform, not having any facts… are we sure bnl isn’t a trial lawyer?

*disclaimer: I work for an insurance company, I sure as hell don’t speak for them.

The GOP wants to keep those profits flowing to their big-money donors. Shameful.

The liberals want to keep money flowing to the unions which kick it back into their pockets as “campaign donations” while Americans suffer. Not to mention liberals oppose Tort reform because they want the trial bar to rake in as much cash as possible off the misery of Americans and then kick that money back to them in the way of “campaign donations”.

So all in all, liberals want Americans to suffer while their contributors make them richer.

THAT’S pretty damn shameful right there.

Tort reform won’t reduce costs and will create government panels deciding what a victim’s life is worth.

Well, OhioSnowballer, Texas has implemented the most sweeping Tort reform. The result is that malpractice premiums have fallen 30%. The benefit is that more doctors are moving to Texas. The drawback, I suppose, is that lawsuits have fallen by half and that means a little less work for Texas trial lawyers. But I’m sure they’ll go looking to drum up business in South America. Was Chairman Maobama lying when he said he favored Tort reform?

Further, Texas doesn’t have a state income tax and more Fortune 500 companies than any other state due to reasonable regulation. That’s why over a thousand people a day move to Texas along with many companies. Not to mention their 8% unemployment rate which is lower than the liberal run failed states of New York, Michigan, California etc.

Speaking of government panels deciding what a “victim’s” life is worth, we already have that with Medicare and RVUs thanks to liberals. And let’s not forget that ObamaCareless seeks to cut reimbursement to specialists and funnel that money to GPs. One, then, could say that the liberal plan is “Don’t get sick and if you do, you better hope to hell you don’t need a specialist.”

And then “guaranteed issue” and other liberal ideas have already been tried and FAILED resulting in higher costs and reduced access.

Why in the hell should we believe that the liberals will make it work on a national level?

For instance, buying across state lines won’t do anything except see the insurance companies flock to those states with little consumer protection, leaving victims in their wake.

Tort reform won’t reduce costs and will create government panels deciding what a victim’s life is worth. Yeah, the anti-death panel gop thought that one out really well. ha.

Let’s face it, the GOP is the party of NO without anything constructive to add. The GOP has been a complete and utter failure in leading over the past 20 years. At least the author of this thread recognizes the horribly lost opportunity bushco had and frittered away. Pity, but not surprising. The GOP wants to keep those profits flowing to their big-money donors. Shameful.

I am told quite reliably that in a meeting today on Capitol Hill, Republican Senators began to rapidly move toward concessions on health care because they are afraid they cannot hold their members. Some Republicans are now thinking of supporting a government program.

If this is true, I’d like for one of these gomers to explain why any GOP cooperation is needed. And then to explain what exactly the GOP is needed for.
