Comment on Disability pensioner charged $6,760 for renting a phone that retails for around $1,800

The only upsides of allowing this to continue is the company perpetuating it making money and a smug lemmitor getting to feel superior to the poors and disabled people, so it’s obvious that it shouldn’t be allowed to exist.

It’s amazing how many hexbears can’t have a simple discussion without getting personal.
I agree this BS needs to stop. I disagree on HOW it should be stopped. The market (and people out to make a quick buck) will always move faster than the govt can respond. Especially when the victims involved here have shown absolute zero financial literacy. Rather than treating the symptoms, I believe there should be more focus on education.

Not really much of a discussion to be had. You just keep alleging facts without evidence. I don’t think “Uh huh!” and “Nuh uh!” to be a form of discussion.

Wasn’t referring to you here, you’ll notice we had a reasonable conversation, even if we disagreed. You were the lone exception though.

You’re a clown and you brought the circus. Now ride that unicycle back to Galt’s Gulch and fuck off before more pies are thrown at you. 🤡

You want so very badly for grifters and scammers to go unpunished and have unrestricted to vulnerable people that you’ll proclaim the answer is “education” while even then you want so very badly for anyone who gets preyed upon to have no protection and no recourse.
You disgust me.
