OT: Bad Mojo

This has nothing to do with my proposal. Companies try to pass the buck now, even when they are clearly at fault. My complaint is that companies get sued even when it is not their fault, just because they have deeper pockets than the at-fault employee, and (this is the key point) there is no risk to the suer to try this tactic.

My point is that there should never be a risk in suing a company, and it should always be left up to a judge to determine if the case has merit enough to be heard, and up to a jury if the company is indeed at fault.

I do not have a problem with damage limits, though. Some of the awards in these cases boggle the mind.
