A question for you. How many of you have ever considered the idea of actually suing your employer for any damages resulting from your medical care? The answer – probably none. It probably never occurred to you.
So, just how did this bit about suing employers come about? Well, it’s hard to pin down with certainty, but we can build a plausible scenario.
Plaintiff’s lawyers know that huge awards can be extorted or won from employers through discrimination and other lawsuits. Perhaps they have been a bit frustrated that they could not bring these lawyers into the courts when they were filing medical malpractice lawsuits. Clearly, something needed to be done to open the door to suing employers who provide health insurance. Just open the door a little … that’s all the lawyers need. Just a crack. Give them that tiny little crack and they find an activist judge who will kick the door wide open for them – and the assault can begin.
So, how to open that little crack? Easy! Get their Democrat friends in congress to do it for them! Get some legislation enacted that will allow employees to sue employers in medical matters. Just a tiny little crack! The lawyers and judges can take if from there!
Believe me, these trial lawyers make one big pile of money. North Carolina Democrat Senator John Edwards is one of them. He made a fortune being a trial attorney … then spent $6 million of that money to buy his seat in the U.S. Senate in 1998. Then, what’s the first thing he does? He tries to open the vault for his fellow trial attorneys!!!!! Edwards’ net worth, by the way, is about $50 million.
Why are the Democrats so eager to see the employers exposed to the trial lawyers? Two reasons: First, trial lawyers donate big bucks --- tens of millions --- to political campaigns, and over 90 percent of those millions go to Democrats.
And the second reason? Power! Pure, simple, unadulterated power. For over 50 years Democrats have had a single-minded purpose of creating a national health care system in this country. Call it what it is --- socialized medicine. Democrats know that a great deal of influence and power can be wielded over a person if you control that person’s access to health care. Any proposal that has the possibility of upheaval and chaos in health care is a proposal that Democrats can learn to love. Chaos and upheaval lead to demands for control and solutions – and those demands are made on government. Just what the Democrats want to hear.
So --- with yesterday’s actions in the Senate, one step closer to socialized medicine. One step closer to your total dependence on government for your health care. One step closer to a Democrat nirvana!
