Tort Reform???? lol hahahahahhahaha Are you kidding me? We had tort reform. Every request made by the medical community was granted. Every request from insurance companies was granted.  Limits on damages. Panels of buddies to say if you committed malpractice. Oh my god are you behind or what?  Limits on punitive damages. Limits on actual damages. Many legal and many more procedure hoops to jump through once you have filed a lawsuit. You have no idea.  When they got all they wanted in Tort reform....guess what ....insurance premiums went up!!!!!  Big insurance and big med and big pharma and big corporations won that one with all their purchased Republican representatives.  Republicans have been in power a long time and they worked through many a night to give their masters what they wanted.
