The Case of Stella Liebeck and Tort Reform as Supported
by the Works of Kant : A 5 page paper that seeks to prove
that Immanuel Kant would support both Stella Liebeck's case
(women who sued McDonald’s after being burned by coffee)
and Congress' subsequent tort reform laws, simply because they
meet his altruism ideals for citizens and government under his
laws of citizen duty to act under the laws and slow government
reform. This paper claims that Kant would not support
McDonald's egoism in retaining their hot coffee policy because
of the number of complaints received prior to Liebeck's
case--and also his "mine and thine" policy on dual
responsibility. Kant was a supporter of free-will as long as the
individual agreed to avoid chaos by lending itself to
government's laws, and a supporter of government as long as it
made slow reforms that did not incite revolutionaries.
