That is a good question Ray. Personally I find "Lawsuits" a proxy of the violence of the rich projected onto the poor via bureaucracies. It really is an adversarial system where the most ignorant of the law escape responsibility, but gaslight their targets with pretenses of "Authority". When rich men or women complain about an "injury" whether real or imagined sleights they have the wherewithal to prescribe warfare/lawfare against those who do not have the capitol to fight back, ergo, the whole "legal" farce of "equal protection under the law" is cliche. Why should they do the violence themselves (they are too modest or cowardly) when they can call on a host of "investigators" (more often than not instigators) to carry out their "World is my Ouster" whims.

Sometimes they are needed. 6 months ago a friend, a lady about my age 76, had delayed gallbladder surgery TO REMOVE OLD STONES, It was botched and ruptured into the abdomen, NFECTION STARTED. She is a Type 2 on insulin. She has been in the hospital most of the time. Kidneys damaged, by to low potassium, Dr caused, and constant antibiotics/steroids. Every 2 days Dialysis. Lung infections and trach tube scarred throat, which had to be repaired, another infection. Wrong meds, Dr refused to consider that gut flora was damaged. Nearly died several times. NO oxygen at home. Lungs are 'sticky' and fill with fluid from the lung infections. Thursday she stopped breathing. Sepsis. No way to do CPR because of lung damage. No other way to restore breathing. Sister did a Breathing procedure for her. EMT's called. More antibiotics. Had her on Morphine which suppresses breathing. Family said NO. Moving to a chest Lidocaine patch. Need a Med. Malpractice lawyer who is not an ambulance chaser for Shelby Co, TN. The family kept a big stack of records documenting all that has happened. SHEER INCOMPENTENCE.
