$500k winging its way to the nurse.Neither here nor there as far as what the nurse gets out of it, but honestly doesn't seem like enough to make the Salt Lake City govt. take notice. Hopefully, the bad publicity did.
Thats what i thought also. I had expected it to be more.
Taking money from cash-strapped municipalities does not cause said local government to "take notice." It causes them to make budget cuts that often further create a disservice to the local population. It is ignorant and short-sighted.
it also leads to policy changes. Not every time, but it does.
I have spent the past 20 years representing municipalities. It does far more harm than good, in almost every single situation. Same thing when a school district gets hit with a large monetary penalty. The taxpayer is the real loser in every single one of these cases.
So whats the solution then? People like the nurse just accepting when theyre fucked over? Suing is the only real way they have to fight back.
who's smarter than you're? i'm!
