What is that even supposed to mean? I go to Target, buy some soap, and go home. Somehow that's fraud?

I'm not saying Target or any other corporation is free from their issues... But fraud isn't necessarily one of them.

I think you lack reading comprehension, go read about the history of Target, just cause you think they aren't fucking you the customer over directly doesn't mean they aren't doing shady things

All fraud are shady things, but not all shady things are fraud. The prior commenter implied that all top corporations commit fraud (at least, that's how I took it. It was worded a bit abstractly).

So, what fraud (not shady thing, not something you disagree with, but actual fraud) is Target committing? Or are we just trying to be edgy?

Thank you captain padentic, where would multi million dollar corporations be without you defending them. Anyways here's a list of lawsuits on Target, for everything from price gouging customers with item prices, to discrimination based on race and disability, but I'm sure it's A okay in your book
