thanks for that lol cuz jesus gently caress the Senate just voted 50 - 50 with Pence breaking the tie to mandate binding arbitration instead of allowing class action suits against banks & financial companies

so in 2011 & 2013 SCOTUS decided in two cases that arbitration agreements in contracts were ok, now they are loving everywhere & basically limit your ability to sue an ever-increasing number of entities. companies like them because they don't have to worry about some local jury buying some sob story in podunk county, and they can route cases to arbitrators who usually find for the defendants; if they choose to even bring them at all. Basically another way to kill the plaintiffs bar by turning the individual's due process rights into some fakakta Orwellian nullity.

The kicker is one of the guys responsible for cooking up this scheme used to work for Discover Bank, and his name is John G. Roberts Jr.

hosed. Didn't Canada or some other more reasonable county rule that citizens are unable to waive constitutional protections under any circumstance? So you can sign a contract where you waive your right to court, and it's a real contact, but you stl have the right to regular legal remedy?

Great so now my phone will have a clause where they won't steal my dick pics but because it has to go through an arbitrator they get to choose if they do steal my pics, well. What a strange coincidence I was ruled against.

https://www.adn.com/alaska-news/2017/10/21/notebook-afn-delegates-set-native-agenda-politicians-talk-about-trump-climate-alaska/

quote:

They brought up Obama administration actions that they said hurt Alaska, such as a block on the King Cove-Cold Bay road through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge, Sullivan said.

On each one, Trump asked Zinke: "Can we change that and help Alaska?"

Trump thought of one on his own. Wasn't the name of a big mountain in Alaska changed by executive order? he asked, referring to Denali, the former Mount McKinley named for the president from Ohio.

"Lisa — Sen. Murkowski — and I jumped over the desk. We said no, no!" said Sullivan, who is originally from Ohio.

Why? Trump asked.

"The Alaska Native people named that mountain over 10,000 years ago," Sullivan said he told him. "Denali, that was the name."

He's wrong though. Unless Trump manages to start a nuclear war, Brexit is far more stupid.

I'm glad brexit exists because it gives me, as an american, something to look down on the way the rest of the world looks down on us. But then i remember our president couldn't even pretend to care about US citizens dying due to his own incompetence and I start drinking again.
