		<description>What state are you in and what&#039;s your specialty?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Texas rates went up 150% and have now declined about 40%.  What did your state&#039;s do?</description>

		<description>&quot;Funny, regardless of what the stock market does, tort reform affects the cost of malpractice insurance, as seen in Texas.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The only way one could say that is if they didn&#039;t know what the stock market does.  In fact, every malpractice &quot;crisis&quot; has corresponded with stock market declines.  This is easily verifiable, I&#039;m surprised you didn&#039;t know.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&quot;Sorry, if there&#039;s anyone screwing the injured, it is, and always has been, the lawyers.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Yeah, because your insurance company just loves to pay claims even when it knows your negligent.  And you were just itching to write a check to help that person with their future medical bills and lost wages, eh?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Are you even fooling yourself with this stuff?</description>

		<description>Replace the lawyers?&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Now that&#039;s an idea. Maybe shaved apes. No, but apes have scruples.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Guess I&#039;ll have to try the back of the phone book, as lawyers are a dime a dozen.</description>

		<description>Funny, regardless of what the stock market does, tort reform affects the cost of malpractice insurance, as seen in Texas. It has also taken the judicial hellholes and made them more attractice to the docs, as we see with the backlog of applications in Texas.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sorry, if there&#039;s anyone screwing the injured, it is, and always has been, the lawyers.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Like they say about lawyer jokes. Lawyers don&#039;t think they&#039;re funny, and non-lawyers don&#039;t think they&#039;re jokes. There&#039;s a reason why you&#039;ve earned that reputation as a profession.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;When are you going to require lawyer malpractice insurance in your state?</description>

		<description>&quot;tort reform is the law of the land in that state, and it is working.&quot;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;What&#039;s working?  You&#039;re making more money?  OK.  See you at the next stock market decline when you&#039;re not.  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Is the price of healthcare for the patients going down?  Is there less malpractice?  Or can we just admit that the whole thing is about putting more money in your insurer&#039;s pocket which hopefully they will pass to you?  &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Didn&#039;t think you&#039;d trade places with anyone.  You&#039;re not brave enough to even admit how you&#039;re screwing the already injured patients, and you probably lack the intelligence to replace the lawyers.</description>

		<description>Touchy aren&#039;t we.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Sorry if your jackpot gravy train was disturbed. YOU can keep on repeating yourself if you like, but the fact is, tort reform is the law of the land in that state, and it is working.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;No, I&#039;m not trading places with any injured parties, medical or legal. I do notice that it&#039;s the John Edwards types in the mansions, not the clients. I know who&#039;s getting the &quot;jackpot&quot;.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;But not to worry. There are always other ambulances you can chase, other clients for you to cheat. I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll survive.</description>

		<description>I like that.  You say something, then repeat yourself and say &quot;sounds like I hit the mark.&quot;  Are you with the Bush Administration?  That appears to be how they make decisions as well.</description>

		<description>Sounds like I hit the mark all right. Sorry if the truth hurts.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;There&#039;s a lot of nonphysician medical &quot;experts&quot; on the site though.</description>
