If poverty is no excuse for breaking the rules then wealth should not be either... But that is not how it works in a land where a bunch of bankers can break all of the rules of sound lending and then demand that the government relieve them of them of the consequences of their actions and suffer few or no penalties. Literally the only people who have gone to jail over the 2008 mortgage banking crisis were whistleblowers who called out malfeasance on the part of their employers. We can start jailing homeless people _after_ the CEO of Wells Fargo is in jail.
