our lovely legal system

Is there any hope for a legal system where a judge sues a family run dry cleaners for $65,000,000? Yes, that 65 MILLION dollars.

And what egregious sin are the defendants accused of committing? Misplacing a pair of $800 pants. The pants have since been found and the dry cleaners have offered the judge a $12,000 settlement but he is continuing with his suit.

Just another example of why people hate the United States.
