Causality

Although Bush has been going around since god only knows when trumpeting that frivolous lawsuits are the main cause for putting doctors out of business, he's pretty oblivious (...) to the fact that he'll be cutting 5% off of Medicare for the next 6 years. A loss of 30% of one's income seems to be a pretty big factor in putting someone out of business, as opposed to lawsuits that account for 1% of all medical costs. If that person were a Fortune 500 company, well, I don't have to finish that thought for you.
