Caveat Emptor… The burden is on the buyer to know what they are getting into. And the government should stay out of all of this. This is what republicans mean when they say small government.

How does this make any sense “if you, or anyone you know, has ever bought our taxi, you can not sue when our driver hits you”?
“Buyer beware” is not an argument when this shit is buried in pages of dence leagle documents or in some case never presented to the end user (in the case of a things like appliance delivery, where the buyer never sees the documents included).

I’m like 80% sure they were being sarcastic in that comment. I hope so anyways.
