Now clearly, Mr. Edelman is a member of liberal royalty, as you\u2019ll see.<\/p>\n<p>He recently ate at the Sichuan Garden, a Chinese restaurant in Boston. Edelman, is an associate professor at Harvard Business School, thought he was overcharged $4 for his meal. The restaurant, a small business, said it was a mistake &#8212; their online menu prices hadn\u2019t been updated. They offered to make up the difference.<\/p>\n<p><BR\/>Not good enough. At Harvard, Ben Edelman teaches business. He is also known as &#8220;The Internet Sheriff&#8221; &#8212; a fraud expert who consults for Microsoft and the NFL. And he is liberal royalty. So he wasn\u2019t about to take crap from some little Chinese restaurant that overcharged him $4.<\/line><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"eZObject_99870\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Rush-Morning-Update.gif\"\/><\/p>\n<p>In a series of lengthy emails &#8212; Edelman accused the restaurant of committing a major violation of Massachusetts\u2019 consumer protection laws. First he demanded a $12 refund &#8212; claiming he could recover triple damages by law. Then he demanded a 50% refund on his $60 meal.<\/p>\n<p>He then threatened government action to compel the restaurant to &#8220;identify all consumers affected and to provide refunds to all of them.&#8221; The restaurant made multiple offers to settle with Mr. Edelman, in vain. Finally, the day after his pompous emails were published &#8212; to widespread scorn &#8212; Mr. Edelman apologized.<\/p>\n<p>If only arrogant, entitled liberals cared about taxpayer dollars half as much as they do their own dollars, why, we\u2019d have no deficit, folks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A guy named Ben Edelman is the nephew of Marian Wright Edelman &#8212; the far-left founder of the Children\u2019s Defense Fund and a big Hillary Clinton friend.
