Yea I think the upper courts have been dismantling a lot of protections. What I saw was they sent it to the State Courts which aren't as prepared to handle these cases and it takes much longer to get anywhere. For the cases that should already be illegal and ruled on this is kinda disheartening.
At the same time, I realized it's a great opportunity to strengthen the States. If SCOTUS is refusing to set guidelines then community organized efforts across States have much more power to do so. There is always the ability to change public consensus on these issues. I think in the past it was manipulated to give a false consensus.
They also abused global tech laws under the threat of tarifs and that that has lost a good deal of potency as well.
As far as the 3 years and everything with the State and Banks, I've checked into this somewhat and there are ultimately no protections and limited enforcement in these jurisdictions. The DA's often won't even file complaints they receive let alone investigate. Our State AG plays by a similar handbook and receives complaints and never releases them. No investigations they weren't already planning to do.
We have some bad corruption because the AG takes taxpayer dollars to fund lawsuits against the president's administration. It's sounds good because he is taking on important issues, but ultimately there's zero transparency into how he is doing that.
Generally what happens is the orgs solving an issue never solve it enough to lower our "need" for them.
I wish I could say that I don't think the prior, current and next AG are using this playbook.
If they wanted to help us they would need to bring transparency to the City insurance pool and consider defunding. At least that's how I'd start.
I'm sure if more people understood these insurance pools there would be better solutions.
