Noromance: There is no such thing as a 'Democratic Socialist' nation. Because the Socialist government can always be removed in an election. What changes the people when the Socialists are in power? Or are you thinking about the many nations that say they are democracies but are not. Truth is, if you count the real democratic nations of the world you won't get to 25. Its never been more than that. Probably never will be.
Why restrict the criticism to eBayers? 40 or 50 years ago all the big companies were basically honest most of the time. Now they are basically dishonest all of the time. Volkswagen. Big banks defrauding LIBOR. Utility companies charging more to long-time customers. Bank and insurance company mis-selling. Lawyers protecting their own backside instead of putting the client first. Drug companies sellng dangerous products and knowing it. Lies about organic foods and ingredients. Pretending to be green. etc etc. There is no end to it.
