    Imo having lawsuits as a normal expected step in the healthcare system is ridiculous in depth, not just on the surface.

    The victim might get compensated in the end, but having to go through lawsuits is just stupid.

      Its also necessary. Americans made this shitstorm of a litigious society themselves.

      They paid for their insurance, why wouldnt they use it and protect themselves?
