Look at all the scandals we see over and over again its part of "the cost of making business" as long as you can make a profit in the end do it.
Its a shark pool.

- noir_lord 10y agoGiven that when the rich get caught they just pay a fine that was a percentage of what they made by doing whatever they got caught for then I don't see this changing. You get the very rare notable case of a rich person going to prison for this shit (notable because they actually go to prison) of which they serve a fraction of their sentence in club fed. Not sure what the the solution is but for some of the tricks they've pulled I'm amazed some fucker hasn't climbed the nearest tall building with a high powered rifle.
- Evolved 10y agoGiven that when the rich get caught they just pay a fine that was a percentage of what they made by doing whatever they got caught for then I don't see this changing. Unfortunately, you're correct on this and it seems that unless someone commits a violent crime, they just end up getting fined unless they can't afford it (middle class) in which case they get the book thrown at them. You get the very rare notable case of a rich person going to prison for this shit (notable because they actually go to prison) of which they serve a fraction of their sentence in club fed. I'm not sure where you read this but it isn't accurate. Federal prisoners serve almost 90% of their sentenced time whereas state prisoners are eligible for parole after serving as little as 25% of their sentence.
