Maybe think they're less a joke than a good idea? Because a bunch of lawyers are greedy control-freak assholes like this.
Lawyers are pitching state attorneys general in 16 states with a
radical idea: make the food industry pay for soaring obesity-related
health care costs.
It’s a move straight from the playbook of the
Big Tobacco takedown of the 1990s, which ended in a $246 billion
settlement with 46 states, a ban on cigarette marketing to young people
and the Food and Drug Administration stepping in to regulate.
These are the assholes who'd love to sue Ford or Hyundai because a drunk was driving one of their cars; who, if they do this, will trot out endless lines of 'victims' and demand billions in 'damages', most of which the fucking lawyers will steal. And the price of all food will go up, and the parasites will look for someone else to sue to line their pockets. All for the good of the commoners, of course.
If you haven't already, start checking to see if there're enough lampposts for the crooked lawyers, too; if not, well, there's lots of trees.

FWIW, those lawyers are a tiny subsection of lawyers, and are usually referred to as trial lawyers by anyone EXCEPT lawyers who actually go to trial.
Also, FWIW, most of those lawyers who actually go to trial would be happy to tie the noose for these disgraces. (they are the ones who have to beat these animals back for corporate america)
And unlike cops, we DO turn them in whenever we can catch them breaking the rules.
