Supreme Court Finds BBB Guilty Of Causing Global Economic Crisis
March 12th, 2009Link: http://www.bbbroundup.com
In a five to four verdict, the Supreme Court today found the Better Business Bureau guilty of causing the current global economic crisis. Writing for the majority, Supreme Court Justice William Bergermeister said "While there is plenty of blame to go around, the facts in this case demonstrate a pattern of corruption and abuse of the public trust that is shameful. The court rejects the BBB's central argument that the blame be laid at the doorstep of the Los Angeles BBB who pioneered the BBB's new A through F grading system. The National BBB had plenty of time to scrutinize the new grading system before implementing it nationwide and failed to do so. This court finds the BBB, as the national oversight body in charge, guilty of improperly supervising the conduct of their franchised regional members, and as such, they must be held liable."
