      Well I don’t disagree but if those protections aren’t in place then it’s up to the consumer to protect themself.

        That’s something the gov’t is supposed to mandate because businesses don’t give a shit. They’re only there to make money for the corporate bosses and investors.

        Caveat emptor is not a universal mantra everyone knows or understands.

          I mean the government hasn’t put up any protections yet. I support them putting up protections. Until they do, someone’s providing actual advice of what to do instead of crying, getting scammed, or not buying a car.
