Yp, your life might get ruined but for the judge it's just another day at the job. Need to clear the docket, meet Jeff for lunch and then plan his golfing weekend. Oh, he owes $127 and he's not here? Arrest warrant!

In a sense they have a "permanent ruler," the Politburo. But in reality the leader is 99%, unless he makes sudden /unpopular moves. But then, he's 64, he has another 5 legit years, so he'll be 69 when his 2 terms en

Let's just sit back and think... $4,000,000,000 in 4 years. or $50,000 for 80,000 families. On the other hand, how come they are making 65% net margins? Where's the competition?

Not a lawyer, but IMO someone has to go to jail. All this money spent, the media and Mueller isn't going to end his career shooting blanks. You can plead however you want to, but if the evidence is crystal clear, you're toast. Eve

The little town banks maybe. Frankly, the national one I think try to get away with as much as they can. And their bonus system is probably to blame: "by the time this is discovered, I'll be gone with my bonus."

I would've liked it more if the refund was accompanied by a fine of 3X the amount. Do they ever mistake to give people free money (at such scale?) I bet the stealing happens a lot more often.

This is absolutely insane, especially in USA. Courts here are supposed to be impartial and just. If you increase your chances by x in a certain court--and you can file there--what justice is it? Shocked that this travesty lasted this long.

TL;DR After nestle they are the largest buyers of coffee beans so they act like Walmart. But they pay interest, at European rates (very low.) $58 BILLION...in six years. It might not end well. A small hiccup at those numbers can kill you.

Bottom line is that they want the sale. So they have figured a system where they do it x% of the time and get away with it. Maybe they place a part of the cash with another car transaction? In theory all transactions above $10k in cash mu

Great point. Americans will also be arrested for beating their wives, a conduct that might be 100% legal in another country (or at least ignored.) Or try driving with a legally owned gun through a few USA states and see...
