Consumer Protection

There are many pros and cons to consumer protection. The Bureau of Consumer Protection's mandate is to protect consumers against unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent practices. The Bureau enforces a variety of consumer protection laws enacted by Congress, as well as trade regulation rules issued by the Commission. Its actions include individual company and industry-wide investigations, administrative and federal court litigation, rulemaking proceedings, and consumer and business education. In addition, the Bureau contributes to the Commission's on-going efforts to inform Congress and other government entities of the impact that proposed actions could have on consumers. There are certain things that consumer protection looks out. It makes sure that the research is done so that the customer can be confident in the product that they are buying.

I think that consumer protection is a good thing. Due to the research and precautions that must be taken, many jobs are more profitable. Because of consumer protection my dad sends bussines to local garages who can do repairs and safetyt check the vehicles so that the consumer is protected and they do not get jipped.
