Attorney General, et cetera, but alas, they do not know
how to complain. They lack the understanding, the
education. They do not have the initiative. They cannot
take back the television with the cracked tube, because
they cannot find the door-to-door salesman. The bank who
financed it says it-is not responsible for the product
and the money was lent in good faith. There is not a thing
that the Charley Brown of Detroit and Cambridge can do but
get mad, mad, mad with himself for being ignorant and a fool
mad with his neighbor and society who condones profiting
on the poor, mad with a government which ignores broken
promises to the poor, and has no laws that provide for his
education and protection against harmful and unfair business
practices.
I hope we delegates are smart and will rise
to this occasion. People need and want this consumer
protection. Our economy knows what it means to give a man
what he wants. Our economy knows it pays to produce the
highest quality and at the best price.
