I have seen a similar argument by patent trolls and copyright trolls– that they keep their demands moderate, lest the bankruptcy of an honest business leave less for everyone including plaintiffs. But the occasional bankruptcy is part of their business model, to convince other targets that they are not bluffing.

The fact that ADA has not improved employment of the disabled was explained away as a measurement problem. And she has never seen anyone game the system or the unnecessary bankruptcies of good businesses by bounty hunters. “Gambling in this establishment? I am shocked!”

I was surprised that the funneling of substantial funds to lawyers did not come up.

Good job, Mr. Olson.
