This is a great, reasonable explanation, and I also believe your original comment is getting unfairly dunked on.

The USA has so little regulation to stop corporate wrongdoing, and the regulations that do exist are barely effective (“kid gloves”). The government is ridiculously lenient on companies. Even when they do break the law blatantly, law enforcement is loathe to do anything. As a result, they can basically do whatever they want. Civil lawsuits are one of the the only ways the general public even stands a chance to influence/correct how they behave.



I got dunked on. I casually commented an opinion without thinking of how to put my feelings and thoughts into words. I made the legal option too upfront. It is an eye catching controversial topic to jump on. I am just enjoying myself for now. typing up random ramblings.
