A juicy morsel to the trial lawyers in health care reform - why?
To: President Barack Obama
Sen. John McCain
Sen. Jon Kyl
Rep. Gabrielle Giffords
October 31, 2009
This is what is wrong with congress and Washington. You say one thing and then do another. You want to reduce health care costs - really?
The health care bill recently unveiled by Speaker Nancy Pelosi is over 1,900 pages for a reason. It is much easier to dispense goodies to favored interest groups if they are surrounded by a lot of legislative legalese. For example, check out this juicy morsel to the trial lawyers (page 1431-1433 of the bill):
Section 2531, entitled "Medical Liability Alternatives," establishes an incentive program for states to adopt and implement alternatives to medical liability litigation. [But]…… a state is not eligible for the incentive payments if that state puts a law on the books that limits attorneys' fees or imposes caps on damages.
Keep up these games and say good-bye to the democrat majority in 2010.
