Weatherkiss: If we loosened liability regulations, they'd do the right thing of their own free will. It's the regulations that are causing them to do this. Maybe throw on some tax cuts for good measure.
Actually I think if we had single payer Healthcare, UBI, and affordable housing. I think lawsuits would be cut in half. Most people sue because they have no other recourse.

Could you now, for instance, sue someone who cut you off on the highway for P&S because you thoughtyou might have an accident, even though you swerved and recovered your vehicle out of danger with no ill effect?

starsrift: Lawyer kind of has a point. Wrongful death is different than pain and suffering, which is about damage caused by an injury, not a scary few seconds pre-injury. Allowing it would set some interesting precedents.

But we let cops kill people out of a fear.

Pain and suffering refers to the physical discomfort and emotional distress that are compensable as non-economic damages. It refers to the pain, discomfort, anguish, inconvenience, and emotional trauma that accompanies an injury.

Znuh: Put that man on a 737-MAX that duplicates the flight and crash. Let's see how calm and collected he is when its avionics argue with itself and start the plunge.
No, just drag him out of his offices and beat his face until unrecognizable, like other civilized societies.

bubbadave1056: Under Florida's Stand Your Ground law, the passengers could have said that they feared for their lives, then stormed the cockpit, and killed the flight crew. That would've fixed everything.
Right! But also notice no one on that plane had a gun... And they -all- died? Quite a coincidence that the kill rate is 100% without a good guy with a gun to help.
