Some reasons why America needs reform can be seen in certain technical areas of the law, where federal laws, and individual states' laws, operate on similar topics, with quite complicated, confusing, involved, and uncertain outcomes and results.
One example is environmental laws. Environmental contamination is a hot current topic.
The current Florida Bar Journal has an article dealing with this topic, and with the creation of duties.
(Re private causes of action, if, say, California had similar legislation, might one infer that perhaps the Skipper of 'The Minnow', the pleasure boat on Gilligan's Island, would have had a cause of action, in California, say, for an oil spill off the coast there, resulting in a 'loss of view' for The Minnow's clientele, absent a property right, and absent a showing of negligence? It's complicated, as one might imagine.)
