Reminder: Posession is 9/10ths of the law. A vet told a customer that he had to pay for a new treatment or the vet would put the dog down. The customer refused to pay and the vet refused to give dog back. Cops were called, guy forced home without his property. Rest of customers scared of extortion.

I expect things to get worse and see more extortion and coercion in 1st world countries. How did the East handle this sort of thing? Did the same type of events slowly start happening with previously trusted institutions?

I am wondering how professionals like doctors, accountants, dentists will being extorting and coercing people??? How do you think? How to avoid this?

The dog owner went in with good intentions but the diagnosis was not confirmed by anyone else and the cost was high for a low income person (vet could have easily done it for free since probably killing the dog would have been just as expensive.

The dog owner wanted to take his dog elsewhere and think about it. But the vet wouldn't let him take his dog. :(
