Well a problem that is in need of correcting. There is no consumer protection in a system that most people have trouble navigating let alone understand. It is those within the system that are pushing hard to maintain things the way they are.

Amazing! Are they "perfect"?<br /><br />It is even more amazing when one considers that they get no supervision. They have no oversight, and they do receive complaints. But... the record of public complaint dismissals by the JB is close to 100%.<br /><br />There are no instructions for making complaints, so to do so is to play a game of 20 questions. Is it animal, vegetable or mineral? Am I cold or hot? Should I use the Rules and Regulations, or are they an optional standard?<br /><br />The key question is: Does the JB want to correct malfunctioning of its "officials of the court" or not? How do they improve quality? How do they protect the public?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
