This assumes you know that they are deceiving you. If the company is successfully deceiving you, then you will not know it.

- javert 11y agoThis is some really distorted thinking in an attempt to salvage the false notion that we are all helpless without the government protecting us from "evil" companies. 99% of companies I interact with have no way to deceive me in any significant way, and the few that do (e.g. maybe a bank, insurance, or other financial companies) I double check on and I take action to mitigate the risks. Moreover, companies who commit fraud eventually get caught and their people go to jail. That is all part of a free market system, not a command-style, over-regulated Marxist one, which just hurts people in the long run. People who advocate that kind of system are serious evil.
- MaysonL 11y agoMoreover, companies who commit fraud eventually get caught and their people go to jail. Which is why all the bank executives are currently in jail? (Contrast DOJ enforcement after the latest financial blowup to their conduct after the S&L crisis). See Bernanke's take: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2015/10/04/ben-bernanke-execs-jail-great-recession-federal-reserve/72959402/ http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2015/10/04/ben-b...
- javert 11y agoThat is out of context for this discussion. Banks have regulatory capture. Plus, I'm not aware of bank execs committing fraud. Plus, I'm not saying that the tort system works perfectly, I'm staying that is what we should fix, rather than having a command-and-control regulatory [capture] system like progressives/Marxists want.
