Please do reread my comment. I never said the position of those undertaking the suit are immoral; on the contrary, I specifically stated that the models involved were culpable. I'm merely stating that were the victims not wealthy, this violation of the law would likely never have been punished. I'm pointing out a systemic issue in the legal system, in giving greater access to the capitalist aristocracy.
- drzaiusapelord 9y agoHow can you possibly know this? Maybe a lawyer would take up a case for the non-wealthy as a class-action. Or an organization like the ACLU would step in and support someone's claims. I think you're really stretching credibility here with a "Only the wealthy would do this" argument. Most of Fyre's tickets were low end tickets. Painting this as a "capitalist aristocracy" issue is extremely questionable. My reading of your comments just shows someone with a classist axe to grind and little else.
- tomkarlo 9y agoI don't think it's so much the wealth of the victims as the size of the transaction (ticket price) as well as the total spend. It makes a class action lawsuit (where the lawyers will get a % of the value recovered) attractive, whereas if it was a smaller purchase, with the same number of affected customers, that might not be compelling to lawyers.
