ORIGINAL: tazzygirl Personally, Treasure, i have to agree with you also on the reading part. So many have allowed others to "discover" whats in this bill, instead of finding out for themselves. Its become a trend, this laziness, for lack of a better word. If im going to have to buy something, i want to know what it is, exactly, im going to buy. I try to do what you suggest, but it's impossible. The legalize in most contracts such as health insurance, car insurance, bank agreements, and credit card agreements are specifically designed to be incomprehensible to the average consumer. On important things like my health and homeowner's policies I have spent hours on the phone without being able to get any straight answers on what my policy does or does not cover. Companies have legal departments to draft these documents but you are left with uninformed agents or customer service reps to explain what you are or are not covered for under the policy. You cannot possibly state that you understand all the ramifications of the bill regardless of how thoroughly you read it.
