I do lot of work with the Chamber of Commerce. When they poll their members asking them what is the biggest political issue for them, they say "law suit and insurance". It is the fear of litigation and the high cost of litigation insurance that is the biggest thing hampering their success.
This is the word from small business, and small businesses are the engine that run this country. Most people in this country are employed by small businesses, most of the growth is generated by small businesses, and sometimes small businesses turn into big businesses like Microsoft.
I have worked as a lawyer in a few countrys and I can tell you the litigation climate here is totally different. Our litigious society makes us less competivie and hurts growth.
Trial lawyer organizations are a pox on our society.
