My rant for today....
America's Sue-Happy Society Costs Us All
I recently read another news article about two new lawsuits against Yamaha (Yamaha faces two suits over Rhino rollovers). Litigants say the incidents occurred because the Yamaha Rhino was "not stable" and "lacked necessary safety features."
Our sue-happy country is spiraling downhill, and it makes me sick.
Predatory lawyers know they can file ridiculous lawsuits against product makers and blackmail them into huge cash settlements, even in cases in which a user has ignored common sense. The United States is the most litigious nation in the history of the world and it is costing us all dearly. With all of these lawsuits, the cost for a manufacturer to do business in the United States is absurd.
Billions of dollars in litigation costs is passed on to consumers, insurance premiums have skyrocketed as everyone scrambles to cover their behinds, astronomical settlements depress corporate earnings and stock values, and many companies are too scared to even build certain products like UTVs because the vehicle is more likely to attract lawsuits.
Even after a manufacturer decides to build a new product, they must spend an inordinate amount of time to cover themselves with warning labels like “Caution: Coffee is hot.” Wake up Ameria! Coffee is supposed to be hot. The rest of the world must just laugh at how pathetic the United States has become.
I sure hope that ordinary, hard-working Americans can take back our country and put some common sense back into the way our government operates, because this "me first" society we are living in makes me worried about the world my kids are going to live in.
