@Xenophon

you are right of course, I did not go into details and I provided sloppy facts...however, that was exactly what I wanted to do...

My examples are extreme and overdone, what I wnated to do was set up a counterpoint to SpiderMatt's ravings about how everything would be so much better if there were no governement guys around to cut down our freedom...

Thank's for putting in those details my statement lacked by the way, nice researching...^^

One other thing:
You say that people were already suing companies over false advertising and stuff like that long before the government stepped in, and I'll just assume that's true...but even if the people started it on their own, somebody has to enforce it and make sure the comanies stick to the rulings of the court, not just the one comapany that was sued, but all companies...
