This is worth re-reading...
Rep. Ryan Kiesel, D-Seminole, said capping pain and suffering would hurt stay-at-home parents and homemakers who would not be able to prove actual damages, such as lost income, if seriously injured by someone else.

"Non-economic damage caps hurt the folks that don't have actual damages,'' said Kiesel, a law school student.

Um, seems to me the biggest hardship discussed is someone without damages...if they cannot prove damages, why should they receive pain/suffering????? Oh the humanity, I imagine it will hit the poor hardest if they can't prove they have any damage...perhaps we could just reform the court to have a civil trial lottery system. Ooops, that's what they're trying to end.
