quick point:
1) corporations (the majority of which are sub chapter s or small biz in Hawaii ) protect the personal assets from slip and falls in parking lots etc.
2) maybe if we started with tort reform and standard business contracts as opposed 5 pages of small print with exceptions and stacking the odds to the support the providers.
3) something needs to be done with personal liability - the way it reads now - if one has assets - they are responsible - if one doesn't - oh well......
4) eliminate bankruptcy --- you bought it - now you need to pay for it even though the item is in the landfill - just like the folks who saved up and paid cash....
edit: good read on minimum wage and how the gov't subsidies (our tax dollars) work for coporatons in keeping wage levels down - still think we get a "deal?"
