[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 853043, member: 17969"] Tort reform is brought up every year by the republicans, but it wont pass. It has been brought up going back to Ronald Reagan. Tort reform sounds great when the republicans pitch the idea, but when you look at whats offered as REFORM, you see the devil in the woodpile. The republicans would like to see a CAP on awards for malpractice claims at $150K. In other cases, a CAP of $90K would be the highest amount of money a person could sue a doctor for. IN law, 44% of that 90K would go to the lawyers. If youre injured by a doctor, and permanently injured, the max you would recieve is 150K. How does this help the patient affected? Who would this benefit other than the doctors and insurance companies? Believe me, if the republicans could control both houses with a majority, this will become law. Peace. [/QUOTE]
