President Obama’s Health Insurance Reform initiative is a very sick  joke.

One of the major drivers of rising health insurance premiums is the cost of defensive medicine and malpractice insurance resulting from trial laywers filing frivilous lawsuits and the lack  limits or ceilings on damages in many states.

The Democratic Party will not mention or address this issue for the simple reason that one of their biggest campaign contributors are the trial lawyers in United States.

Doctors are fleeing states they  have not enacted tort reform laws and going to states that have reformed their tort laws such as Texas.

As long as the Democrats control Congress and the Senate you will not see national tort reform which is badly needed to eliminate or at least diminish one of the major causes of out of control medical and health insurance costs.

The silence of the Democratic Party on this issue speaks for itself.

Give me a break Mr. President–you are bought and paid for by the trial lawyers.

Exposed: A trial lawyers’ pay-off in Obamacare

By Michelle Malkin  

“…Walter Olson has the scoop on how Dems tried to stuff goodies for trial lawyers in the House Democrats’ health care takeover bill.

Republicans apparently stymied those efforts last week, but like the Terminator, they’ll be back.

Keep an eye on this one:

Just before the House leadership’s 794-page health care reform bill went to a Ways & Means markup last Thursday, a remarkable provision was slipped in that amounts to one of the more audacious and far-reaching trial lawyer power grabs seen on Capitol Hill in a while. Republicans managed to fend it off for the moment–but don’t be surprised if it shows up again down the road in some form.

The provision would have drastically widened the scope of lawsuits against what are known as Medicare third-party defendants…

…The language slipped into the health bill would greatly expand the scope of these suits against third parties, while doing something entirely new, namely allow freelance lawyers to file them on behalf of the government–without asking permission–and collect rich bounties if they manage thereby to extract money from the defendants. Lawyers will recognize this as a “qui tam” procedure, of the sort that has led to a growing body of litigation filed by freelance bounty hunters against universities, defense contractors and others alleged to have overcharged the government.

It gets worse… …”
