Fighting Against Fraud and Wrongdoing with Clint Krislov

Every day big corporations, government, and organizations have the opportunity to steal big by taking a little at a time. From parking meters to phone bills, elections, and just going to work, it costs us money to walk out the door every morning. How often do we think about being wronged, and what do we do about it? Segments and topics covered on this show: 1) Consumer Fraud and Corporate Abuses – cereals, telephone charges, Google privacy and healthcare; 2) Corrupt and Illegal Government Actions – Chicago’s 75 year sale of parking meter systems to foreign govt’s; 3) Investor Protection and also Whistleblower Cases – records, reporting and protection; and 4) Pension Abuses and also Election Abuses – protecting employees, benefits, and elections.
