Thread Name: BS: Compensation culture
Subject: RE: BS: Compensation culture
the situation described in the first post is disgraceful.
i dont even have any words for how stupid that is.
other things that are stupid

- Scientists spending £300,000 on the formula for the perfect beach, or perfect cup of tea, and there are people in africa etc who cannot even afford to eat.

- A driver, who had no license, tax or MOT on his car, was recklessly driving and hit a man, a father to 2 children. he died.
The driver was fined £89.90 and let off with a warning.

A month ago, a driver with no tax, crashed into a tree. (he killed or injured nobody) and was fined £500 and jailed for 3 months.
This man who was killed, his kids will never see him again and his wife is now alone. the killer walks free.

so this makes me very angry, the entire law system needs sorting out because it is crap.
