Why has the vaccine court paid over 3 BILLION dollars to families. Not to mention the numerous families that were not given the chance to file a law suit.

Just because you say it happens does not make it true. Studies of children around the world have shown it is not true. Many parents believe their children have been harmed by vaccines when the only connection to the vaccine is that the administration of the vaccine preceded the child's illness. Many who claim vaccines caused autism have had home movies show that the child clearly had signs of autism before being vaccinated.
The risk of having an adverse reaction to a vaccine is tiny - one in a million or less. The risks from the diseases that vaccines prevent are much greater than that. One or two people out of a thousand who get measles will die from it and many more will have permanent disabilities.
The amount the vaccine court has paid out is high because awards are generous for claims that are approved.
https://www.hrsa.gov/vaccinecompensation/data/
"Since 1988, over 18,329 petitions have been filed with the VICP. Over that 29-year time period, 16,517
petitions have been adjudicated, with 5,555 of those determined to be compensable, while 10,962 were dismissed. Total compensation paid over the life of the program is approximately $3.7 billion."
That is 5,555 claims out of
millions of doses of vaccines administered.
Vaccine court improves the chances that someone who has an adverse reaction will be financially compensated, because it is not necessary to prove that the adverse reaction was related to the vaccine, but only that it might have been. Also, attorneys are not paid out of the award.
Anyone who does not agree with the decision of the vaccine court can appeal it, potentially all the way to SCOTUS.
It is still possible to sue a vaccine maker if the vaccine is defective; however, vaccine reactions are not due to defective vaccines. If they were, everyone would have a reaction to them. They are due to an abnormal response by a very small number of people to the vaccine and that is not something that the vaccine maker can predict or should be held responsible for.

Like it or not, the way we get medications, including vaccines, is through a profit oriented system. Would you prefer to be taxed to fund drug research and development? Would you like for Congress to determine what diseases that research is directed toward?

I am old enough to remember that wonderful "safe" drug thalidomide. FDA approved it. Companies swore it was safe. And it caused thousands of horrible birth defects.

Every vaccine saves money by preventing medical office visits, hospitalizations, and lost time from work for parents.
You misremember. Thanks to Dr. Frances Kelsey thalidomide was never approved by the FDA for use in the US.

MMR does not last for more than 20 years, again it is easy to find this information.
Only 3 states do not allow you to attend public schools for not vaccinating. Most states have a religious exception, which if you are a Christian, you can opt out because you do not believe in using aborted babies for vaccines.

Autism has always been with us. It was called mental retardation or "childhood schizophrenia" or kids were just thought to be weird. Many children with it were hidden at home or institutionalized. Now the criteria for diagnosing it have been liberalized in order for more children to qualify for services to help them.
No abortions are being done to make vaccines. For some, the virus used to make the vaccine is grown on cells from two abortions done decades ago. The abortions were not done to make the cell cultures, and new abortions are not being done to create more such cells. Even the Catholic Church has determined that the benefit of the use of those vaccines to protect the health of children outweighs the ethical concern about the source of the culture cells.

Routine MMR boosters for adults are not recommended.

If your child is the one who dies from a vaccine preventable disease, are you willing to accept that?
During the past flu season there have been 103 deaths of children under age 18.

About three fourths of children who died from flu between 2010 and 2014 were not vaccinated.
