    oh no the government might spend more money!? i guess we can’t do that then!! nevermind that the government is already spending this money and all im suggesting is redirecting that funding to a different related department to make public officials actually invested in maintaining a historically neglected program that serves mostly the poor.

    you’re right, instead we should discourage people from filing civil suits entirely by making sure only people who can afford to pay the defendants’ lawyers fees will file them. that is a much better solution.

      That’s not how it plays out in reality.
