| Message | If they are found guilty of malpractice, they should be penalized to the extreme. Especially since they took an oath to heal, not harm. And doctors keep malpractice insurance so the big rewards don't normally affect them. |

| Message | The problem is that good doctors have to pay insane insurance rates to feel safe, and of course they pass the bill on to the public. Jackpot Justice is crippling Beluzia's medical industry! |
