Incompetent doctors and hospitals NEED to have their asses sued off. Otherwise what is the motivation to watch what they do?

No, it is not bullshit. Frivolous lawsuits are fucking retarded as shit and are hurting everyone in the process just to make a few lawyers some big bank. Of course SOME doctors and hospitals need to be sued, which is why I specifically noted the difference in my post.
Incompetent doctors - such as a doctor cutting off the wrong leg - needs to be sued.
Doctors that make honest mistakes - such as leaving in medical sponges once in a blue moon - do not deserve to be sued.
My sister-in-law wanted to get a lawyer to sue a doctor that left a medical sponge in her and it took me days to talk her out of it. The American ?sue first, ask questions later? attitude needs to change and it needs to change now.
