Too bad class action lawsuits no longer benefit the consumers involved. If that system worked, it would be a way for consumers to fight back en masse. The alternative is legislation, but 'blah blah no more regulation blah blah.'
- dv_dt 8y agoI agree that so many class action suits seem to result in peanuts for those in the class, but I also think it's difficult to assess how much that acts as a deterrent to even worse behaviors.
- onemoresoop 8y agoI think it does affect them but they would find ways around it because they are at the center of the operation. We are always one step behind, doing hard work trying to untangle what they machinated. I think we should fight politically, we should strive to make scamming more punishable than it is now such that if they're caught, not only should they give back what you stole but be taken out of business completely.
- thanatropism 8y agoIt's even easier to get legislation wrong.
