>>184907183In both cases they were tricked by a dishonest 'salesman' and the 'salesman' is still clearly morally wrong no matter what we think of the retards who suffered.
>>184907187They are morons, I agree. In fact, morons were being targeted. And by predatory, we are talking about businesses lying to customers and in many cases ruining their lives, we are not merely talking about 'taking advantage.' It's the deceit and the global ramifications that I have a problem with. Lying and wrecking the economy are not acts to be defended.
>>184907201BoA did it badly, actually they failed miserably and then, after failing horribly, they went begging for money. Creating and bursting bubbles is not a good way to make money (unless you are right at the top of the scheme) nor is it a good way to maintain a business (unless you have a government willing to throw money at you all the time).
