I thought you guys sue just often as we do. The only difference is that we actually pay victims in a meaningful way.
Still, big lawsuits are rare, but your dependence on the government is general and systematic.

To summorise,
The US has tremendous potential, but is scr*wing it all up
(just start by throwing those **** out of the whitehouse , then do the poll again and see what happens.
Seriously, if Clinton would have done the same thing regarding Iraq, there would soldiers from all over the world helping you guys out in a united front. (not that you need help of course.)

You obviously mean:
"Europeans, who work and fight in solidarity to achieve their common goals usually don't like the US where people are self-centered to an almost paranoid degree."

Well you people do have a history of killing millions of each other for fun.
If that's what you mean by "fighting in solidarity."

Depends on the field. It takes some brains to make law well-paid here, rather than being a drama queen...

Dream on.
"The only difference is that we actually pay victims in a meaningful way."
Especially those who are too dumb to realise that coffee is hot.
"Still, big lawsuits are rare, but your dependence on the government is general and systematic."
Says the guy from the country with an entire class of a welfare-dependant subpreletariat.

Whyever not? If I did, surely that'd be grounds for yet another lawsuit!
But your honor, I swear I didn't know....

My, my. Maybe there is hope, after all.
Brief and to the point.
Congrats, Big M.

McD's was waaaay more negligent in that suit, and you probably know that the judgment was dramatically reduced on appeal.

We had the debate about that lawsuit, and it's still ridiculous.

You know when you first went to the BBC page after the last update. Did you by any chance tick the box that said you were in the US or at least not in the UK?
The international version rather than the UK version mainly has US news because most people who visit that site and aren't from the UK are from the US.

The UK version must have been full of Beckhams lately.
