		<description>TORT REFORM  

TORT REFORM  

TORT REFORM  

We will never get costs down without the ridiculous sums that are paid out for liability.  

An OB/GYN can pay over 1 million a year(!) for liability insurance. It is not the doctors fault that a kid is born with any number of birth defects - that are the parents fault due to heredity, or irresponsible pre-natal care - or lack thereof - AND smoking, drinking, inproper diet,... Then to blame the doctors, and sue them, is ridiculous. But, when you have some low-life that is to ignorant to take care of themselves, and their unborn child, and an equal low-life attorney tells them to sue the doctor... THAT is what is contributing to the insane costs of health-care.    

BTW my opinion: If someone is on welfare, and they have a child, they should lose ALL the disposable part of their welfare. Give them food and shelter, BUT they should not have money for a single cigarette, drink, movie, ... for 18 years. If they choose to be irresponsible with OUR money, they have made their decision, andf their entire life is now that child they chose to bring into the world. If a mother is not wed, the father need to contribute ALL of his income or benefits.  

A DNA should be mandatory to investigate and determine responsibility for a children and make record of BOTH parents.  

If a man thinks he can not use protection, get a woman pregnant, and have a child, and we will pay for that child - he needs to be held responsible.  

If a woman thinks she can get pregnant, not use any protection, and we will pay for that child - she needs to be held responsible.</description>
