00:00Pat, I always read these things and I wonder to myself like, I'm not saying that what they're
00:05doing is wrong, and I'm not taking sides here, but other things are sold in this country
00:11that do cause issues too, and people are targeted as well.
00:15I just find a hard time believing that they're going to win this.

01:17lawsuit or legislators saying, hey, let's put a few more safeguards in this for our
01:22consumers.
