So-Called "Railway Safety Act" Constitutes a Political Handout to Big Labor That Does Nothing to Improve Safety At All

America as we know it was built largely upon and because of our rail industry, and today it remains a pillar of our economy.

Unfortunately, a destructive proposal before Congress misleadingly named the "Railway Safety Act" (RSA), part of broader surface transportation reauthorization, threatens great harm to our railroads.

Simply put, the bill has nothing to do with improving safety, but has a lot to do with advancing the political agenda of Big Labor.  At a moment when inflation burdens American families and fragile supply chains remain vulnerable to disruption, the last thing our economy or rail sector need is another costly federal mandate imposed upon one of the nation’s most important transportation sectors.

Wednesday, April 20 2016

A thirteen year-old red-headed boy has filed a "wrongful life" lawsuit against his parents for allegedly causing him "voluntary prejudice" by giving life to him despite knowing he would be born into a life of pain and suffering.

Liam Murphy, whose parents both have red hair, claims they knew he would very likely inherit what he describes as a very undesirable trait: red hair.

“My life is a torture!” the young boy said. “I keep being told that I have no soul or that I am from an endangered species. People keep calling me Carrottop, Strawberry Shortcake or Ginger Freak, and all of that is my parents’ fault! They knew they were offering me a life of misery, and they selfishly decided to have children anyways.”

The youth is demanding $1.35 million in “pain and suffering” as monetary compensation for the entire experience of having a disabled life versus having a healthy mind and body, as well as $800,000 in “loss of enjoyment of life.”

“My client was intentionally exposed to a life of rejection and bullying by his parents,” said James Franklin O’Connor, the young Murphy's attorney. “Many scientific studies have proven the social difficulties suffered by people with red hair, but this couple who had suffered from it themselves, consciously decided to expose their children to the same thing.”

According to news reports, a few “wrongful life” lawsuits have generated financial compensations of up to $20 million for some children, but these were for plaintiffs born with heavy disabilities or debilitating diseases.
