1.) Doctor incompetance exists, and 2.) Doctors should be responsible for their screw ups. The Bush policy says that: 1.) There should be no personal responsibility on the Doctor's part, and 2.) Legitimate suits should be penalize the victim rather than the doctor. That is the result when the worst doctor's insurance premium is the same as the best doctor's. BTW - the $500 million is not necessarily just to benefit the victim(s). It's to send a message to society that this kind of malpractice should not be tolerated. The problem today is that the burden of that message is paid by all doctors, not just the bad ones. I thought you "conservatives" were against welfare and for personal responsibility. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Sams Teach Yourself Regular Expressions in 10 Minutes by Ben Forta http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=40 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:132831 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
