    When freak accidents happen we don’t look for someone to blame, we treat any victim’s wounds free of charge.

    We have public health departments that study accident trends and make precautionary policies to prevent them from happening again.

    This wasn’t a freak accident and McDonald’s had been warned repeatedly about the temperature of their coffee being dangerous. This is why the victim was awarded so much, McDonald’s was being intentionally negligent with their coffee to save a few pennies per customer. You act like you can just hit someone with a car in a place with universal healthcare and it’s ok because no hospital bill.
