Suzy would have to have signed an actual legal lease agreement, which is written such that it is binding not just on Suzy, but on her heirs and assigns. I maintain that the so-called lifelong lease documents do not meet this criteria. Writing it in a pledge manual or in a statement of policy is not legally binding, even if Suzy's signature appears on it.
The document I signed to get my cable box is far more substantial than anything I've seen written by the GLOs.
Perhaps an actual lease document is what is required. What happens when you don't return your cable box? You get billed and eventually taken to collections over it - or so I'm told
But the GLO takes no such action when a member quits, dies or grows tired of their badge. Why?
