The same regulatory burden falls on small mom and pop locations and makes doing business impossible for anything but billion dollar corps who are only profit-motivated which drives down wages and leads to the current cost of living crisis that most of the west is experiencing.
If you fall down the stairs, that should essentially never be a lawsuit in my opinion unless there was extreme negligence on the part of the property owner. If you burn yourself it should be your fault. All of this unnecessary regulation and liability is what makes everything so unaffordable.
In lawsuits, details matter. Ya if a person jumps down the stairs it’s their fault. If a business failed to clean up a spill because they layed off workers to reduce costs and a customer falls down the stairs, yes it is the business’ fault.
Funny how those mom and pop business got absorbed by corporations so might as well have those regulations that you think hurt Mom and pop businesses
