    No, it’s not.

    It’s an acknowledgement that there’s a massive problem.

    These companies are literally willing to bankrupt you to death. Their behavior is inexcusable. They profiteer off of human suffering.

    We live in a country founded by people who were unhappy with the status quo and were willing to pick up a gun to change things. We shouldn’t act surprised that it still happens. I don’t think we should celebrate it, because it’s sad that this is happening in the first place, that someone feels they need to do this. This problem is solvable, and it can be solved civilly, or it will be solved uncivilly.

      Thats exactly how I feel “Its sad that this is looking like the solution”

      Like, it had to come to this? You couldnt just set up your little racket and keep the golden goose fat and happy? Or atleast adequately provided for and left alone?

      Agreed! Sad that all the debt and death these companies allow is ignored in these discussions.
