I honestly don't get how you can be all smiles while apologizing for white collar crime, all the while knowing that white collar crime of this variety, or of wage-theft variety, has so many more second-order effects than "regular crime". Maybe not you, but I've met other people who don't end up with the corollary that such things don't matter, but who instead seem to set out from the get-go to "not be one of those people hating on the 1%". It's like the hipster "I don't like music that's popular" but transposed to "I'm so learned that I actually rationalize white collar crime".
