Speak Out Against Corporate
Misconduct!
By Barbara

Erick O. purchased a computer on
the internet. He paid about $850 for it. When it arrived, it didn't work. He
sent it back for a replacement. The replacement didn't work either, so he sent
it back again. This time it was supposed to be repaired. When it came back it
still didn't work. The company stopped returning Erick's phone calls and they
were rude to him when he called them.
So, what did Erick do about
this? Absolutely nothing!
This is why corporate America is
becoming more and more dishonest. Most people are too complacent to fight back
when a company does them wrong. They won't take the time to dispute with
companies that have cheated them. They won't take the time to write letters to
consumer protection agencies. Some people will take the time to
hire an attorney, but that doesn't help anyone else.
Not enough people will take a stand
against unfair business practices, such as credit card company
dirty tricks, credit
scoring for auto insurance, the ridiculous fees imposed on just about
everything, same as cash scams,
etc.
The only way consumers can stop getting
ripped off by giant corporations is to join forces. Hiring attorneys to solve
our own problems and not caring about issues that don't affect us at the present
moment is not going to do it. We need to write letters to legislators and
consumer protection agencies. We need to urge everyone we know to boycott
dishonest companies. We need to circulate flyers and put up posters. We need to
put up websites
if we are able. We need to
do everything we can think of to stop the epidemic of corporate
corruption.
The rate of bankruptcy has never
been higher than it is now. The rate of corporate corruption has never been
higher, either. There is a direct correlation between consumer debt and
corporate corruption. For more information on this, click

My friends, we have to do
something and we have to do it now! We all have to Speak Out Against Corporate
Misconduct!
