It appears that Americans are no longer capable of acting rationally (or morally) on juries involving lawsuits. Our move toward Socialism/Communism has people of the mindset that the business or school should always pay a huge amount to the plaintiff, no matter what. Anything to take money from those who have and give to those who don't is considered to be a good thing by Americans these days.
The latest is the case of a woman who picked up a needle in a Target parking lot and pricked herself in the hand with it. She didn't receive disease or injury or anything. But a jury still awarded her $4.6M.
