Thanks to the Supreme Court, businesses will protect consumers
Thank God for the Republican Supreme Court. In a recent decision, this strict constructionist court held that consumers injured by a defective medical device cannot bring another costly lawsuit. These pesky lawsuits are harming big pharmaceutical companies. I don’t care if ordinary people are devastated by defective products. In the long run, we are better served by profits to big business. While we’re at it let’s reduce most, if not all, tort cases. They are costly to business, and eventually, to all of us.Let people who are harmed handle the burden on their own.The courts should be open only for businesses to fight over contracts and such. Let’s also eliminate taxes on corporations. These hurt the consumer in the long run and are a drag on the economy. Let’s also any regulation of business. Business will regulate itself. Pollution will be decreased because they will see that it is in their own self-interest to clean up after themselves. Let the free market rule!
