    It’s clear that liberal judges want to support ATLA thru buttressing the awarding of hyuuuge non-eco damages.

    In the end, it is consumers of medical care who are ultimately punished by ‘punitive damages’ that must be passed back as medical care provider’s cost of doing business. Alternately, as the article states, medical care providers exit their noble profession earlier than normal retirement age to avoid the risk of lawsuits that consume time and money.

    Imagine if this issue were soon resolved, enabling lowered costs of med mal insurance and self-insurance, to the benefit of medical care consumers? Liberal judges and slimy attorneys preying on malpractice victims would all become libitterals overnight.
