    They only carried $1 million in insurance, whereas damages are estimated to be as high as $100 million. And they are not liable for extra damages because they could just declare bankruptcy and the $1 million gets split amongst the victims of their negligence. Yay, libertopia!!

    Would you like a larger font?

    That's not negligence, that's disregard for regulations. Which is what I said. Which is what I meant. If you and Tuttle want to :circlejerk: and pretend I said something else, I can't help you.

    As more and more evidence comes in, I think what we're seeing is a combination of mendacity, illegality, complete disregard for employee safety, and rule by tweaker. Or, in other words, if it's Tuesday, it must be Texas.

    And that was even before the EMT with the destructive device.

    Actually you're right and I apologize. Too tired. I was under the impression that you were stating that lack of regulation caused this incident.
