. or so. Yesterday I wrote about 2,000 and the 1,202 drug and medical instrument companies that had their licenses revoked. China is just one example of the end stages of tort alter. Russia is another example but in tort reforming the purpose is always the same to remove consequences from the tortfeasor the wrong doer the one injuring another. You disbelieve me; then consider the following.
In July of this year I visited and got a firsthand look at some parts of that country. While I didn't tour any factories or hospitals I did get to walk around Moscow and went outside of Moscow to Mineralnye Vody on my way to Cheget. And what I saw left me concerned about where our country is heading. We are heading towards the same destination as China and Russia and will meet them somewhere in the middle but a lot lower in terms of the quality of life we now enjoy. We've been going through tort reform in this country as if there were no end in sight. This government of ours yes it's comfort ours isn't interested in regulating industry but allowing industry to regulate itself. So what did I see in Russia that still bothers me and why do I draw this analogy?
What I saw was the end result of a society that doesn't adjust its industry. In Russia newly constructed buildings were constantly under construction because they don't know how to set a footing. They were constantly jerry-rigging what had just been built because there are no uniform building standards or work rules. Ceilings and walls cracked no flashing was being used and adorn was in the process of being applied over bind block where all the daub between the block had not yet been added. There were walkways with broken concrete and stairways where the steps all had different rises and runs. And there were large buildings with weather stripping hanging off the side of the building. I watch a worker cutting boards and never using a tape measure or square.
At the airport I witnessed six workers standing on the roof in a circle around one worker turning a wrench. The iron workers were uploading re-rod to the roof top of the terminal. Not a single worker wore a hardhat. The iron worker on the ground was moving re-rod and lumber. He wore a jump suit with the legs rolled up allowing me to see the flip flops he wore on his bare feet. He wheeled lumber around nearly striking passengers waiting for taxis. Re-rod being lifted by a crane from a truck was an accident waiting to happen. The re-rod in the sling that hung from.
