And we're along for the ride and paying the bills.
I understand that and theres definitely times where I feel the same way which is sort of why I phrased my prior post the way I did.

I understand that 'The Law' and 'Real Life' are often very dissimilar things, but boil it down and think about it just from the layman's perspective.

They want, and implore that they are justified, to unilaterally re-write contracts and then hand companies a bill.

Thats insane.
