    I guess if you’re stupid enough to buy a dental plan based on Tom Hanks’s recommendation, you’re also dumb enough to think Tom Hanks still looks that young.

          A lot of them or all of them? Because if it isn’t all of them, they deserve those protections.

          I don’t know… that argument seems to me like saying because some poor people are Republicans and vote against it, they don’t deserve universal healthcare.

          Protections should be universal.

          Feels like a symptom of poor education to me.

          Society in general seems to give up quickly on people who might need extra support to learn, without really considering the consequences

        The point is these people are already being scammed, regardless of if it’s the real Tom Hanks.
