The debate between Cato adjunct scholar [Shirley Svorny ](https://www.cato.org/people/shirley-svorny)and the Manhattan Institute’s [Ted Frank ](http://www.manhattan-institute.org/html/frank.htm)continues [today](http://www.pointoflaw.com/feature/#008832) over at PointofLaw, as Svorny points out that while no system is entirely rational, a liability system offers certain benefits that the alternatives proposed do not.
