Deep-pocketed mega-corporation, with close ties to the security services and a dysfunctional company culture, hasn't created a compelling new product since 2004 but hopes boring and overpriced laptop series will be the next big hit.
Since apparently you have the budget to purchase laws - alas, I do not - why be so modest? Credit bureaus snoop, spy, slander, and work tirelessly to make the poor stay poor and the rich stay rich. Let's just make them illegal.
Ah, if only us plebs could afford to buy some laws...
Yup, we're a nation with literally millions of laws, and literally millions of souls rotting in our gulag to show for it. Why can't Equifax's "corporate person" rot in the gulag too?
Oh yeah... it's because we have "the best justice money can buy". Equifax has a whole lot of ill-gotten money, therefore they can buy a whole lot of "justice".
It would be kinda cool if a Communist country started asserting universal jurisdiction for its laws, and had the economic & military power to become it up. Not that PRC at all lives up to Communist ideals.. but it's still an entertaining thought.
In all seriousness, I suspect the ever-growing criminality of the American regime is one of many reasons the Norks will never willingly give up their nuclear deterrent.
One-sided contracts such as you describe have no moral authority, and are abhorrent to a free and democratic society. That American kangaroo courts regularly enforce them is prima facie evidence that the courts have no legitimacy, that they are nothing more than a tool for the shameless exploitation of the working people.
If an ordinary citizen did something this bad, we'd either get the death penalty or life in the gulag torture camps (living death). So this company needs to get the death penalty. Remember, corporations are people too!
Revoke Equifax's charter, shut them down, seize their assets for the public coffers. The American people deserve to see the management of Equifax standing in an unemployment line.
Oh yes, one of the medigreed professionals did give me the option of going $10,000 into debt - i.e. instant bankruptcy - just to get diagnosed. Glad I didn't do that.
Here in HCMC, a doc at the best most super expensive hospital in town was able to diagnose the issue for $158, including tests.
But hey, thanks for your concern and compassion. Fake-progressive running dogs really are the best people!
Actually, no, nothing like that ever happened to me before Obamacare. And now that I live abroad, I have gold-plated health insurance for a fraction of the cost of my former worthless Obamacare coverage.
But thank you for your concern and compassion. Fake-progressives really do care about their fellow man.
That's gonna be a tough one, seeing as how there are maybe 1000 total antifa goons nationwide. And also seeing how they are just a much of anti-'s, grievance mongers without any real Ideology or positive goals.
Probably those destroyers were way, way, way too dependent on networked computer systems for situational awareness. Most likely the captain had no idea anything was amiss until he felt the collision.
It seems like American military doctrine is too focused on using hyper-modern technology to suppress civilian and paramilitary resistance to an occupation. Glitzy, unproven, unreliable high tech toys are are just great when you're fighting against goatherds with AK-47s.
But we appear to have lost focus on fighting an a "real" war against an evenly matched opponent. All this over-networking may prove a real liability. Every networked system on a warship needs full redundancy from an always-active (not fallback) non-computerized human system.

Russians drank all my beer! Just the other day I bought a six-pack, and now it's gone. Goddammit I blame the Russians!

Eh... just doesn't seem very likely. Sorry.

Judge sez: In USSA, only academic nomenklaturists are allowed to have scientific knowledge. Proles must remain ignorant - it's DUH LAW!
Putin himself stole my laundry!
BTW... My issues were a bicycle crash and complications thereof. What's needed was an x-ray and physical therapy, not painkillers.
Otoh, for my pill-popping opiate-addled hypochondriac former colleague in San Francisco, Obamacare has been a dream come true.
But hey man, keep on lying to yourself and others.

FDR should have reigned in the Supreme Kangaroo Court when he had the chance. America would have been a better place for it.
... sigh... Really does sound like we're fast on our way to becoming a failed state.
Maybe some American oligarchs visited Cambodia and thought to themselves, "we need some of THIS kind of government back home!"
There's a word for that: banditry. Or in this case, lawful banditry.
Left = right = center = capitalist
In this case, it's not the cops who are the problem. It's the badlaws and the kangaroo courts that enforce them.
Now put a few judges in the gulag for stealing people's stuff, then we might get some real change.

Because before Obamacare, my coverage through Kaiser was way, way better and also somewhat cheaper.
But hey, cling to the patently false narrative you were fed by the capitalist news media. It's makes you look smart!

To its author, that bug might be a feature...
Senator McCarthy, so nice to see you again.

You're an annoying dullard. Go back to Facebook.
