Consumer legal protections are rare. Unfortunately, any changes or additions to the law are greatly influenced by the latest political attitude, rather than ‘what is right and fair to the general public’. Our Constitution was established to give people equal protections, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for common defense and general welfare. The Constitution establishes these principals for people, not businesses.
The Preamble
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
