Explanation:

The Consumer Bill of Rights

Imagine that you just bought an MP3 player. The fi rst time you

play it, you do not hear a sound. The good news is that you have

rights as a consumer. These rights protect you when a product is

defective.

In 1962, President John F. Kennedy outlined what he called

the Consumer Bill of Rights. The bill stated that every person has

four basic consumer rights—the right to be informed, the right

to choose, the right to safety, and the right to be heard. These

rights received a lot of attention from the consumer movement,

a movement to pass laws protecting consumers from unfair and

unsafe business practices. Over the years, three other rights were

added: the right to have problems corrected, the right to consumer education, and the right to service.

The Right to Be Informed

As a consumer, you have a right to receive accurate information. Consumers can make wise decisions only if they have the

information they need. Businesses are required to provide certain

details about their products. For example, drug companies must

list the complete contents of every medicine. Clothing manufacturers must list the fi bers used in materials. Packaged foods must

show all ingredients, with the main one listed fi rst. Companies

provide this information through product labeling.

The Right to Choose

Because the United States has a market economy, its consumers can choose from a wide variety of goods and services.

Businesses compete with each other to sell their products to consumers. They offer new products, lower prices, higher quality, or

improved services to get you to choose their products. Competition provides choices. A lack of it hurts consumers.
