Honestly, one of the biggest problems in this country is all of the sue happy people. People will sue, wrong or right, just because they can get "free" money. It's principals like this that have led to ridiculous insurance and medical prices (malpractice insurance is INSANE!)
Out here, although there are a TON of lawyers, I don't think people sue as much or at all....

Probably for the simple fact that if you sue anyone with money here, they would probably just have you killed for a few hundred bucks (or maybe some women/drugs). No joke.
