Though most people would stand by figuring every one else will pay the bill and protect them without that person lifting a finger, like it always is.

It is a loose loose.
I agree. the FSC isn't a perfect organization by any means. I guess I was referring to a situation that came up back when the new 2257 law went into effect. The FSC fought it (and still is) and got an injunction stopping inspections for secondary producers. They said that to be covered under the injunction you needed to be a member of the FSC. Now that may or may not be legally correct, but it would seem to me that it would be well worth a couple hundred dollars to join and make sure. The threads that showed up were amazing. People were talking about being blackmailed and all kinds of stuff. Last I checked the FSC was the only group fighting this and I didn't see any of these so called "blackmailed" webmasters who also hated the law forming their own legal group to fight it.

The FSC could be better, but it could also be much worse or non existent.
