Another reason to thank all the "Ambulance Chasers" out there. Ever wonder why it costs you an arm and a leg to go to amusement parks, zoos, aquariums and museums. Of course, the trial lawyers are a major political lobby who contribute millions to Congress to encourage them not to put limitations on settlements. Second, there is no litmus test or entrance exam to these venues. You really didn't think you might get wet sitting near the dolphin tank? A. Yes B. No C. None of the Above Common Sense...gone the way of the dinosaur.
Same reason it costs an arm and a leg to go to the doctor.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo
For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
