excelent video Leila!! this kind of cases are all over the whole world, abuse in consumerism form! we can all put an end to this with this activism!!

Ah, very good point. No, do not limit deceptive advertising! An equal money system must BAN all advertising. Only information delivery and third party unbiased consumer reporting should deliver the information of goods and services under the equal money system! Also, lobbying, campaigns, attempts to influence the masses and conflicts of interest must be forbidden. -very good point you raise-

@rodanosamehr What she is stating is that corporations are misleading which is generally fraud. I really don't understand why anyone would stand up for corporations when we are being screwed more and more lately. If you really had a clue what these corporation are doing to the consumers of the world you would not be so quick to defend them cause they manipulate laws, ship jobs to third world countries. I could write books on this but don't have the time nor energy. repent for time is short!

Fraud is a strong legal term which should be determined in the courts. The box states in ounces what you are purchasing not the volume.

So what is disappointed in the exchange is the consumer's expectation of the box being "filled" when that is not what the product purports to be.

Either way your point is well taken but it is not fraud in the legal term.

every bag of chips ive ever eaten was more bag than chips. always felt cheated. its fucked cause i learned to just accept the small amount of chips in the big ass bag. accept the rip off. to expect it even. fuck that! thats how we get set in the ways of accepting and allowing ignorant shit in general.

I always check the kilo prize of a product because the cheapest one might not be the cheapest in fact, as it depends on the weight. - So I look at the little tiny prize at the bottom that shows the kilo prize when I compare two of the same products prize. Yeah and the chips bags and other bags are vacuum packed to make it look bigger: So I squeeze it together to feel the actual content.
