Never use your account number. Dispute with credit card. Fixed in under 5 minutes. On a side note. Is there any reasons why consumer can’t have some accountability?

@james_chatman Then don’t sign the contract. Why remove accountability?

@PeterLarsonPJL How often do you file insurance claims? You bought it and failed to use it. That’s on you. Time shares, subscriptions, gym membership. Why is it so hard for an adult to take responsibility for their actions? I wonder if theirs a correlation between accountability and the behaviors of our youth?

@deckert7 Completely agree. However, in life you learn more and benefit more from taking accountability. Even if fault lies elsewhere.

@deckert7 We always have options. If we all stopped signing them they’d change tomorrow. They’re clearly not a concern to most people. Why allow a few to dictate for the majority? Why no personal responsibility? What do you learn from holding yourself accountable versus not?

@JasonNZ42 you mean like they generalize everyone that doesn’t think like they do. I’m not her to coddle then like their parents, teachers and now politicians. If they don’t fall into the generalizations it should hurt their feelings. If it does, maybe they should use those feeling as they were intended and do some reflecting. Those that are that sensitive are beyond any help from anyone on the internet. Look around at how little society looks to your generation for anything other than government obedience. You should really do some soul search when the majority has no faith you’re able to do anything for yourself.

@JasonNZ42 I use reason and logic. Corporations will always hire the “best” to work through and around laws and regulations to make as much as they can for their share holders. This should be an obvious. People have the ability to learn and grow through accountability. Or they can blame others and continue to repeat these behaviors they’re not “responsible” for. It’s not that I don’t think corporations are to blame. Just point out the most obvious solution. Unfortunately, we’ve created multiple generations where accountability is something ignored. It’s a fact that taking responsibility from events, even if you’re not responsible. Will benefit YOU. Put your focus where you’ll get the best ROI.

@JasonNZ42 I’ll pass on making a YouTube channel. I don’t think the ROI would be there for me or anyone else for that matter. Not to mention, I’m sure others are already doing it and better then I. I’m not sure what I’m not accountable to? I own, stand behind and can talk to anything I’ve stated. If there is personal benefit to being accountable. Even if you’re not at fault. Vs. Not being accountable and not learning anything. Why not with the shift of a perspective take the path that will result in personal growth? Versus none. It’s a silly human flaw to run from perceived fault or blame. Even in the face of your own benefit. These seemingly small behavioral trates are the differences between those that grow. And those that remain stagnant.

@JasonNZ42 Please explain how they fall within journalistic ethics and standards as opposed to propaganda? Based purely on definitions of course. propaganda The systematic propagation of a doctrine or cause or of information reflecting the views and interests of those advocating such a doctrine or cause. Material disseminated by the advocates or opponents of a doctrine or cause. Journalism Ethics & Standards * Journalism ethics and standards are principles of good practice. * Professional journalism associations, individual news organizations, and journalists themselves often have their own "code of ethics"; however, most share these basic principles: truthfulness, accuracy, objectivity, impartiality, fairness, and public accountability. * Many journalists also abide by the principle of "limitation of harm" which means that they have a responsibility to not harm others while reporting a story. This is one major difference between professional journalists reporting for "reputable" news organizations as opposed to fringe news sources and fake news creators. * When evaluating a news organization, read its statement or code of ethics. What does it tell you if the organization does not publish its' ethics for all to access? * Simply use your favorite search engine to search for the name of a news source and ethics. Here are a few for starters:
