mllaneza posted:It had nothing to do with specifically medical malpractice, but plenty with stopping other people from recovering damages commensurate with their injuries. It's still a case of pulling the ladder up behind him. No, it's not. Unless he made the same payout he got, in the same exact legal situation, impossible to get, it's not. Don't be a cultist.

The dumb part about the Abbot thing is that what he did is WORSE than being a hypocrite and there's no reason to be misleading about it. He got a 9 million dollar settlement for a freak accident but capped damages caused by, e.g., a surgeon on coke, to 500k or whatever it is. The source of the injury doesn't have to be exactly the same for him to be a giant piece of poo poo, there's no reason to lie about it.

Its loving annoying to find out that the story about Abbott pulling the ladder up behind him for people who suffered the same kind of accident as himself, that we've all heard a million times, is a lie. It's an annoying reminder that lefties also do the following things: https://www.texastribune.org/2013/08/04/candidate-faces-questions-turnabout-and-fair-play/ "most of the settlement came from noneconomic losses for pain and suffering and mental anguish, said Abbott’s former lawyer, Don Riddle of Houston." "the conservative Texas Supreme Court, on which Abbott served from 1996 to 2001, began adopting tighter standards for losses that involved pain and suffering and mental anguish." "Charles M. Silver, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin School of Law and co-author of the study that disputed claims made by proponents of medical malpractice caps, said changes in personal injury law and a “pro-defendant” posture in the judicial branch made such a large financial settlement substantially less likely.“Today that would be an extraordinarily high recovery,” Silver said. “It would be harder to get that type of award today.”" I'm going to take the Texas Tribune's opinion over yours.

Mr Ice Cream Glove posted:Best headline I'll never stop thinking its funny as hell when people who claim to love freedom and live in a society that makes sure they (straight white "Christian" men) are as free as possible just flip the table over while they're winning for no discernible reason and say "No deal, actually! Put me in a cage and watch everything I do 24/7 and make sure you check my asscrack for contraband on the regular". Only the best, very fine people. Many such cases.

I know it’s a hosed up state but that seems to be super high compared to, well, anywhere. I'm several pages behind so excuse me if it has already been pointed out but he said that in September of 2022. That's how many there have been in only 16 months.

Just straight up ignoring SCOTUS. Even the states that were told to redraw their election maps have been ignoring them. What can be done about any of this from a fed standpoint? Cut all funding? Revoke licenses from businesses from operating in them?

Rod Hoofhearted posted:One wood please, good sir! The funniest part of the Ben Shapiro Home Depot business, to me, was that he had a plastic bag to hold his little bit of wood, and the receipt to a)prove he bought it from there, and b)return it and get his money back the second he had the photo taken.

If an oak tree injures you that's grounds for extra damages because it'll deter oak trees from falling on people in the future, but if a drunk doctor maims your kid that's just a fluke accident and poo poo happens. I think I understand now.
