Washington lawmakers who advocate for medical malpractice reform assume they know what goes on in doctors’ offices. They say physicians order unnecessary tests because they fear being sued. So-called “defensive medicine” drives up health spending, the argument goes.

The Founding Fathers were never for tort reform. Back in September, I offered to buy the best dinner in Washington to anyone to shows me just ONE pro-tort reform quote by any Founding Father. I've had no takers and I'm not worried, because none of them proposed limiting our 7th Amendment rights.

Hot Coffee at Sundance

I saw this film at Sundance on Friday evening. I thought it was well done. I met the director and the crew that made the movie at a reception before the film. Every American needs to watch this film. The content was very disturbing. Most people know about the McDonald’s case where the lady, Stella Liebeck, who spilled hot coffee on her legs after coming out of a drive through and was awarded almost $3,000,000.00 in the early 1990s. This documentary showed how through distortion and a well funded PR machine this case became the poster child for so-called “tort reform.” It also contained vignettes about the catastrophic effect of caps on damages, and mandatory arbitration clauses. It told the story of how the U.S. Chamber of Commerce used outrageous tactics to control the Supreme Court of Mississippi through campaign contributions and federal indictments. It appears that the movie was picked up by HBO for distribution.
