i did it to show off my knowledge [Kid] Which is superior to the rest of you. Being exposed to even 1% of what I know will make your brain explode[/Kid] not for any prize.
Quote:Actually I saw "accused", "arrested", and "sued"
Not a lot of "convicted"

Your pocket Bible will stop an assailant's bullet, but not before it passes through four innocent bystanders, a school-bus gas tank, and your genitals.

While yes, you can look at it like "if you are rich and powerful you can get away with anything". And for the most part, that is true. I would assume that many of these accusations that Keyser listed have merit.
But it is also fact that if you are rich, powerful, and in the public eye, people can sue you for anything in an attemp to fleece you of money, or gain fame. Especially in politics people can get sued, arrested, or accused of something that has no merit in an attempt to gain political power over that politician.
So just because all these people were accused of a bunch of shit, doesn't necessarily mean that they did any of it. People can accuse you of anything. How many times have you been accused of sexual assault when she so obviously was looking at you that way?

I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

I have seen simularities in the medical profession, as well. Doctors can be sued big time and almost always the patient gains from any attempt to sue a physician. This is why medical malpractice insurance is so high. And people wonder why doctor's fees are so high.

In England doctors are free. They're all government employed. Lawsuits might be high but I'm sure it's not worth as much. Why can't we have that here?
I hold the dubious honor of being the only person never modded who has also never been to a party who in the past had a shared account with a vegetable reference that has had consensual sex with a woman who wasn't from the board that also knows what >) means and remembers the end of the golden age.
I really don't know why we can't have that here. Could it be that maybe the government would lose precious funds and they make out better by collecting a doctor's taxes?
Health insurance companies wouldn't be needed any more and that gets rid of a bunch of headaches. Not to mention there is then no need to have Medicare because everyone can get a doctor because they're free.
