- kortilla 5y agoLots of western countries, including the US. The way rich people end up exploiting the legal system in the US is not a different interpretation of the laws. Corruption is not yet prevalent enough that a rich person can get away with murder by bribing judges/prosecutors to interpret the laws differently.
- hansel_der 5y agoi kind of get what you want to say and admire your trust in humanity, but on the other hand am certain that there have been cases of murder that were "bribed away" in any country. "steal a million dollars and you go to jail, steal a billion dollars and they name a business shool after you"
- cto_of_antifa 5y agoRight; rich people and corporations exploit the law by funding lobbying and pacs that write loopholes into legislation, instead of the direct corruption you see with Eastern oligarchs. It's an important distinction
