Lmao god damn you are dumb. That is literally a propaganda website from right wing think-tanks/chamber of commerce types that lobby to make businesses not accountable for injuring and killing people. You have been taken advantage of my dumb friend

It's fun to watch you lob insults while providing absolutely zero backing for anything you are saying. Meanwhile, if you didn't rely on me to spoon feed you, you would see many bipartisan bills in state legislatures, a GOP one in House, and so on simply to tactical the very thing you say doesn't exist and isn't a problem. Welcome to reply back if you can provide some sort of substance other than unsubstantiated claims and name calling.

O my dumb dumb friend. How can I prove a negative, I'll try? Prior to tort reform sweeping the country, did insurers go out of business? No? Just because tort reform bills are bought and paid for by insurer lobbyists, doesn't mean they are addressing a problem. They just want to increase profits at the expense of injured individuals and children getting compensation for pain/suffering/medical treatment

Why can't you stay on topic? This isn't about insurers, or even tort reform. This is about frivolous lawsuits, which you claim do not exist. A person with no damages cannot file a lawsuit and win, you say. Yet it happens all the time. 50% of the lawyer commercials you see on TV are for "personal injury". The other 50% are class action. Both of which are generally predatory in nature, often push lawsuits that would not and should not exist but they make money regardless, and THAT is the whole point I have repeatedly made while you call me dumb and try to change the subject. You aren't terribly clever.

PI lawyers take cases on contingency meaning they receive a % of the settlement given by an insurer or awarded by a jury.
If there are 0 damages (or even if there damages and liability is disputed), insurers don't pay settlements. Jury will not award money if there are no damages.
PI lawyers have no incentive to take the case. It doesn't get filed.

Again, no lawyer is taking on a PI case unless they can make money or fame off of it.

Do you own a business? Are you sued a lot for some reason? Why are you blindly advocating for insurers over injured people? Is it because you are a rube?
