Only four people and two companies in the Philly area? Seriously? They must not have been looking very hard.

haha. they said 2 more companies are going to be indicted soon. still, there are over 50 private companies in the city and right out the city. once owner find out they are being watched, they close and open up under a new name. There should be a freeze. Its out of control.

Its nothing new. Its been going since MCR has been around. As long as there are a combination of: human greed, capitalistic beliefs, & lack of govt oversight; there will be this. Until we eliminate human greed, there's no fix. MCR, SSI, MK, & Welfare Programs will destroy us; unless there's govt oversight. Currently, there are none. On paper there is but in practical sense; there is none... All the best...

What's wrong with Capitalism?

Are you going to complain to Physio-Control, Ferno or any other companies (that we use) that they don't make their products for free?

However I can see your point in getting rid of the welfare programs.

Lame.

There's a difference between capitalism and greed. Just like there's a difference between expecting to be paid a fair wage for the products one makes versus stealing through malicious intent and lies.
