All basically a consequence of private healthcare. Injured party will seek treatment in a hospital; hospital will seek to recover costs of treatment from their health insurance; their health insurer will seek to find someone else who could be held liable for the costs... which points back to the homeowner who will then pass it on to their home insurer. They then sue the trampoline manufacturer, the manufacturer countersue the injured party, the upshot is everyone has to pay higher insurance costs in order to cover all the legal fees. It's so much better than a single payer healthcare system.
