As soon as you mention Texas Two-step, you'll get a chorus of people who argue that it's a good thing, that it's really the defendants doing the plaintiffs a favor and making it easier and cheaper to sue them and the fact that each company that has done this has snuck out of between 90 and 99% of its obligations and washed their hands of them is a complete coincidence and that just wait, you'll see, the next time a company does it (using the same law firm that has handled all these) they'll really, truly, cover all of their obligations, perhaps even more, and at less cost and effort to their beleaguered plaintiffs.
