Common Sense & Responsibility Equal to Less Non-Sense Lawsuit
By Denis Kristanda of Clamnote International
Like it or not, there are too many lawsuit these days. In well developed country like USA, UK and Australia, people clouded with the fear of litigation. And to tell you the truth, some on the lawsuit is really non-sense. For example: someone buy a hot coffee, spill the hot liquid and burn his body. Can you believe that he can sue the company who sell the coffee (and win) because they did not put enough warning to this person that the content of a hot coffee can be actually hot? This is one of the "non-sense" case that I am talking about. People, influence by greedy lawyer, disembark to a journey of blaming some body else for their own fault instead of keeping personal responsibility to your own shoulder. Where does the "Your life , your responsibility" go?
Be Responsible to Your Own Action
People should be reminded strongly that everything happen to themselves is due to their decision, nothing else. Everything else is just your environment or surrounding that need your attention. One extreme example to show my point: a city service forget to close a manhole in a pedestrian strip. Sure, it's not the way it supposed to be, but if one Jim got hurt on that manhole, shouldn't that to be Jim's own responsibility? (You walk, you need to watch what your walking on, isn't it ? - how easy is that. The other hundreds of people do this and they don't have accident regardless the manhole opened or closed) So, in this example, the accident is actually due to Jim's-own negligence for not paying attention while walking. The city serviceman probably need disciplinary action for doing incomplete job, but he is not responsible for the accident. Of course in real life, that's probably not going to happen. A lawyer will have no time to get this case and suing the city for multi million dollar damaged that half goes into the lawyer's pocket. And the sad thing is sometimes this Jim won. Don't get me wrong that I am not against a lawsuit. Some lawsuits are really necessary to settle differences that cannot be settled, but if lawsuit is used to just shift your own responsibility of what happen to you, then in my opinion that's not right. Well, thanks to these opportunists, we have the world of full of legal disclaimers, litigation and rich lawyers. I would think the world will become much better place, only if people start being responsible to their own action.... |
