That Exciting GOP

I saw four minutes of the Republican debate. What a yawn. Old, white men preaching imminent doom with phony optimism, to sum up. Oh, yeah... and attacks on Hillary Clinton, no matter what the question is.

Rudy Giuliani just made the statement that more than 2% of the Gross Domestic Product goes to "lawsuits." I guess it's easy to hate lawyers (hey, Hillary is a lawyer! But... wait, so is Rudy), but tossing that number out there doesn't make ME think "oh, people are suddenly lawsuit crazy." No, it makes me think, "when there's less government regulation of industry, there are more torts and thus, more lawsuits." But then, thinking is a bad idea at such an event.
