| Message | in that case it's not outragous, it's against your personal oppinion. malpractice lawsuits are instrumental in keeping doctors in check. |

| Message | When I said "I" in the last statement, I was reffering to the fact that the "Socialist Ecology Party" does not like the fact that doctors may be held responsible when greedy individuals take advantage of lawsuits. |

| Message | our court system will not allow too much of that, but will punish doctors in cases of malpractice. what is keeping them from "accidently" killing their patients right now? |

| Message | Do you know that many people who are that inately evil who would do such a thing? The reason most people enter into the medical profession is because they either, want to save people's lives, or they enjoy being around people, helping them as best they can. |

| Message | How many human beings could let someone literally expire right in front of them without attempting to help in some way, shape or form? |

| Message | The fact is that most complications that occur in a hopsital are caused by careless mistakes and errors. Malpractice suits are instrumental in ensuring that a doctor performs his best. I am inclined to agree with the AntiNeoCon Party |
| Date | 16:42:08, February 16, 2006 CET | From | Whigs | To | Debating the Malpractice Act of 2186 |
| Message | Malpractice suits are abused and often uncalled for. To protect to the doctors and their families, I urge my fellow parties to vote against this bill. |

| Message | SEP: "How many human beings could let someone literally expire right in front of them without attempting to help in some way, shape or form?" ANCP: "15%" So you actually have a statisic on this? I'd like to know where you could possible obtain such information. Also let it be known to all other parties reading this debate, that statistics can be made to say anything you want them to say. That is a proven fact, so pay attention to what you see. |

| Message | no, 15% is pulled out of thin air. i cant remember what book it was in, but i can find it, if you like. it was a very renouned psychologist. i'll look it up |
