I see that someone finally put up a good post on the debt collector forum. Consumers would truly be able to rejoice if such legislation were to come to actual passage and fruition.

And here is why that is true.

And here is the post that I refer to.

FYI... this was in the newsletter from the ACA "Government Affairs" Action Update 9-15-04.

Civil Justice Reform Week on the House Floor
This week is designated as “the Cost of Litigation Week” by the House Republican Leadership, reported CQ.com. On September 13, 2004, the House took action on four bills intended to improve the nation’s civil justice system. The House passed the Lawsuit Abuse Reduction Act of 2004 (H.R. 4571), which would significantly reduce the number of unwarranted lawsuits and sanction lawyers who file meritless claims. Chief bill sponsor Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) said, “Frivolous lawsuits harm our economy and threaten to bankrupt business owners. This is especially true of small business owners who do not have the money to fund prolonged lawsuits. The alarming spread of frivolous lawsuits has made a mockery of our legal system.”



As usual, the mensos don't think about the reverse side of the issue and how it can be that such a law would actually make it better for consumers as well.

blindala also don't stop to realize that I'm not really giving him any link credit. He and others want to claim that this blog don't get any traffic so if they are correct in that assumption then what "advertisement" value is there for him to thank me for??? (LOL)

But then, he isn't going to get any "advertising" value out of links from this blog to his article anyway because they aren't real links but rather hidden links that search engines won't pick up on like they would a regular link. Plus I can tell exactly how many people do click on that link and go to his dumb rant. So far only 10 people have clicked on that link to his crapola drivel while 22 people have already clicked on the link to the comments on creditnet so far this morning.

We can just about bet that out of the 5 or so who were actually unique clickers all of them were debt collectors just checking it out and the rest were probably by Blindala himself. In contrast to that, most links I put up end up getting hundreds of clicks and viewers.

Advertising??? Yeah sure!! Dream on.
