You know why my wife's OB/GYN no longer delivers babies? Because she can't afford (or wont pay) the insurance premium. Know why it's so high? Lawsuits.
It would cost me $3000 a year to pay for private insurance to protect myself against lawsuits for my side business.
Auto Insurance rates are high because of lawsuits.
Here is an quote from a public policy institute
Key findings of this look at auto insurance costs in New York:
* There's been a significant decline in serious auto accidents in New York State—yet a serious increase in auto insurance costs. Why?
* The answer is that accidents may be down, but lawsuits are up.
* The lawsuit industry adds an estimated $400 a year to the average cost of insuring a car in New York State.
* Lawyers now get 35 percent of all the money paid out in auto insurance claims—more than goes for medical care and wage replacement, combined.
* And a new law that was intended to improve insurance coverage has simply resulted in more lawsuits — and significantly higher costs for everyone.

You folks out there have got to keep up the good fight. We're trying up here but get sucker punched when ever they see an opportunity. I think at this point it's an up hill battle for all of us. They just have the more powerful resources at the moment.
This is a great example of doing the right thing. If you think it hurts business, than businesses have to learn to keep politics out of it.
