I've seen some of his stuff, but if the good gentleman were alive today and we were having beers, we'd probably get in a bar brawl and he'd kick my ass because I'm sure his solutions to said problems were probably the polar opposite of what mine are.

Then again, neither of us would probably want to waste our beers, and fisticuffs takes a lot effort.

Your Pal,

Actually he coined the phrase, pussification of America, in one of his specials back in the 90s, I think you two would get along.

If the losers of litigation had to pay court fees and the attorneys costs of the winners, giant corporations would be even less afraid of anyone stepping on their toes. It'd be an escalating arms race, and the more lawyers you employ, the less likely anyone's gonna want to touch you for fear of paying your giant fucking bill.

Trust me here. We actually make less money under the current system (and let's keep it that way).

In most of the US, they do.

Also go read the WoW EULA. It's in there.

Attorneys fees are never included if you're the plaintiff at the trial level; it's only ever counterclaimed and that's on appeals if the defendant loses. It's also never part of any contract dispute, which is generally the only thing worth getting mad about.

The WoW EULA is a contract, which means under no circumstances can you be held accountable for their attorneys fees, regardless of who is doing the suing.
