   Did you know Chevron caused a huge climate disaster through dumping waste into the Amazon river, which experts call “The Amazon Chernobyl”, and then locked up the lawyer trying to fight against it?

     Chevron, who through a coup controlled the Equadorian government for many years, got the government to sign a law called “The Act of Liberation”, which, although very much contradicting the name, made it impossible for anyone (especially indigenous people) to sue the oil company.

     They made it illegal to be sued.

     Chevron makes the mafia look like a charity organization.

     @ErikUden I mean, if it was illegal to be sued, then the companies should do anything in their power not to perform actions in which will lead to lawsuits.
     (But I understand that it is illegal for the persons or organisations to bring the lawsuits, i.e. the opposition)
