2. punitive damages go to the taxpayers, not to the plaintiff. Collectivist premise; they aren't the ones damaged. That's part of the reasoning that got us in this mess in the first place. So what? Punitive damages are not a part of the "make a victim whole" payment. They're added "on top" of that as a demotivator for similar activities in the future. It's an interesting idea, and it might cause fewer people to view the legal system as a lottery. - Andrew
