West Virginia will never develop until we clean up our own house. We must show, by deed, that West Virginia has matured into a state where logic and rational thinking prevails. According to the Public Policy Institute of New York, West Virginians spend a greater portion of the entire economy on lawsuit costs than any other state. West Virginia is also one of only seven states that still selects its highest court in partisan elections. Please tell us your position on the need for civil justice reform.
Judicial reform is where a Libertarian favors more government.
We favor reforms that would assure fast, impartial justice to all. It is imperative that the average citizen know that disputes can be resolved quickly and at reasonable costs. We have a two-tiered court system. In the other, where money is lacking, you are more often overwhelmed by the system and justice fails. No republic can exist for long with two-tiered court system.
