re: Ambulance Chaser takes Kim Mulkey on a ride in his Ferrari around Baton Rouge

It’s a complex issue. Tort laws that before 2020 or so, allowed for lawyers to keep cases with the Judge and not the jury so long as damages were under 50k. Happens to be that the wealthier Plaintiff firms were big donors to Judges. Injured plaintiffs can also sue the insurance company in a direct action claim where the jury knows exactly who is footing the bill. Juries who are typically poor and uneducated and dislike big companies. Plaintiffs’ attorneys that have doctors on standby to gin up medical treatment for slightly injured plaintiffs. Four law schools pumping out 150-200 lawyers a year in a state with very little transactional or commercial presence. A culture of “I gotta get mines”.

damn well knows the bible says a rich man cannot get into heaven

That’s not what the Bible says

Nice try though

I think you’re misinterpreting the verse and it’s meaning.

Premiums would likely be lowered if direct action statute was done away with. And jury limit was lowered to minimal amounts.

Not much you can do to stop the sleazy LOP doctors and chiros turning a fender bender into a $25k damage model. I’m sure you’re one of the good guys, huh?

The Bible doesn’t say that someone who is rich can never go to heaven. In fact, some of the Bible’s most faithful men and women were also wealthy (or at least prosperous)—people like Abraham and Job in the Old Testament, or Joanna and Lydia in the New Testament.

But the Bible does warn us about the dangers of wealth—and one of the greatest dangers is that it can keep us from God. Instead of putting God first in our lives, we put our money and wealth first, and end up ignoring God. We also can become proud, and we trust our money for our security. This is why the Bible warns us that “the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10).

Never forget that everything you have—your health, your abilities, your money, everything—has been given to you by God. Don’t let money become your master, controlling everything you do. Instead thank God for what He has allowed you to have, and ask Him to help you use it wisely and for His glory.

Most of all, trust Jesus Christ alone for your salvation. No matter how good we are, or even how generous we are, we still fall short of God’s standard—which is perfection. Only Christ can save us, and He will as we trust Him alone for our salvation. Put your life into His hands today.

Man, that's a pretty car. Love Ferraris.

Last round of reform work by lawmakers, lowered the jury threshold to $5000. It’s done nothing but slow down the court system for everyone in favor of special interests. Well, that’s really not true. It’s increased the cost of seeking legal redress for every single voter and business in this state for the perceived benefit of a few special interest. It sure as hell hasn’t lowered auto insurance premiums one damn bit.

The citizens of Louisiana were told a bald face lie that was known to be a lie when it was being pushed. Disgraceful.

FACT.
