So making poor decisions is an excuse for allowing corporations to screw
people over double when they are down?

That's not the issue.

It absolutely is the issue.

You're mistaken.



This is just another example of how this country is ruled by faceless
corporations instead of real people.

Wrong. This country is ruled by big government, not big corporations. No
corporation can require you to do anything or take your money or property or
liberty away from you. Government can.



Could you imagine how much backlash small business owners would experience
if they used the same sort of strong arm tactics on their customers?

What strong arm tactics?



They can't do it because they do not have the money to lobby for
protections the corporations are routinely awarded by congress.

So the problem is government, not corporations.



Ever seen how little tax these large corporations pay?.... a **** load
less than I pay in my (small) business.


So what? You both just pass them on to your customers. In the end all
taxes are paid by consumers.



There has to be balance to be fair.

There has to be a free market to be fair, nothing else.
