Stupid people deserve consumer protection too. Don't be a snob.
Problem is a lot of the stupid people are the ones voting to destroy the protections they need.
A lot of them or all of them? Because if it isn't all of them, they deserve those protections.
I don't know... that argument seems to me like saying because some poor people are Republicans and vote against it, they don't deserve universal healthcare.
Protections should be universal.
I didn't say they don't deserve it, just that they don't make the best decisions when it comes to what is best for themselves.
Even more reason why they need protection.
