So, I'm left with lifelong residual effects, and zero compensation,

for their computed lost wages, and some money to "learn" another job.
Basically about half of what I lost in wages.

Tort reform needs to happen two ways. One for these people who spill
hot
coffee in their own laps while juggling Chihuahuas, and people who
have a
valid suit, but who lose because of legal chicanery or laws written to
hamstring them.


IOW, one set of rules for Steve, and another for everyone else.

Hypocrisy, irony, and cognitive dissonance are the topics for today.
Discuss among yourselves.

Steve's problem here is not tort lawyers. It's the corporate lobby that
made
Workman's Compensation law a one-sided deal that limits the liability of
corporations.

The lawyers are just hired mechanics. It's lobbying that he needs to
reform.

I don't know what Steve's problem is, but I'm guessing its
relationship to lawyers and lobbyists is incidental.


He needs tar babies to blame his troubles on, and he just grabs the
softest targets. It's like Gunner with his liberals.

Merry Christmas, Ed.

And **** you.


And to you, too, Steve. Enjoy your various bigotries, racial and otherwise.
'Tis the season.
