>The only reason is people love to sue for anything in this country

People "love to sue" in this country because the court system was designed to be THE place where problems are solved. Can't have a federal agency who's job it is to make sure hospitals don't kill people, that would be tyranny, better make everyone sue them instead.

This affects everything in the US. It only affects hospitals worse because the US cost of healthcare is so stupidly artificially inflated that you have to sue for very minor things so you can pay the $40k it takes for some basic physical therapy.
