[...]111:Marie Gryphon of the Manhattan Institute, a centre-right think-tank, who is author of a loser-pays proposal, says that Texas got “much less than half a loaf”, and that Florida was spooked too quickly.2:She argues that loser-pays countries need legal insurance, which can be bought (for example) in England for just ￡100-200 ($150-300) after an alleged loss, but before a suit is filed.3:Lawyers can advance the premiums and add them to their bills.4:In other countries, such as Germany, many households carry standing legal insurance with a small monthly premium.5:Ms Gryphon argues that in such a mature loser-pays market more small-value but high-merit cases would be brought, while both small “nuisance” suits and big “lottery” suits would be less attractive to lawyers.

[...]111:中右派智库“曼哈顿研究会”的马莉?格里芬，曾提交一项败方赔付的提案，她说，德州推行的政策“远远不达到应有的水平”，而佛罗里达州在面对问题时退缩得太快。2:马莉认为，那些实行败诉赔付制度的国家需要有法律保险，比如，在英格兰，如果指控提出，当事人可在立案之前，花100-200英镑（150-300美元）来购买法律保险。3:律师也可以预付保险费并将这笔费用加在他们的账单中。4:在德国等其他国家，许多家庭将法律保险并入到每月缴纳的保险费中。5:格里芬女士认为，在“败诉赔付”制度比较成熟的国家，那些小额的“骚扰”官司和大额的“彩票”官司对律师吸引力都会减小。
