- knieveltech 14y agoYour average farmer doesn't have the resources required to field a lawsuit against a multi-national company.
- Tichy 14y agoThen that seems to be a flaw in the law system. Still, even if they don't start it, why would the company win frivolous claims?
- knieveltech 14y agoSurely you don't think that frivolous claims are never won?
- Tichy 14y agoNot sure, certainly they shouldn't be won as a rule. Maybe there are exceptions, but it shouldn't be just a case of whoever hires the most expensive lawyers wins.
- knieveltech 14y agoThere's a massive gulf between "shouldn't" and "isn't". :/
- Tichy 14y agoSo basically you are saying the legal system (in the US?) is worthless?
- knieveltech 14y agoDraw your own conclusions.
