Some people say the U.S. has a sue-happy society. Others say that we don't; that the whole sue-happy idea is an invention of large companies that want tort reform.

Yesterday I observed that companies still sell products in that hard-to-open plastic packaging that has injured a lot of people. That this packaging is still common indicates to me that we do not in fact live in a sue-happy society.
