Remember the golden rule of the golden rules:

Who has the gold makes the rules.

If a society operates under a rule like this, it is no better than Russia or any other tyranny where law is for me but not for thee. This is not how it should work in a supposedly free and lawful country.

  • It’s been working like that in the US for a while.

    Do you think the bottom 99% of the country would ever win a legal fight with one of the tech billionaires?

    Even if they were 100% in the right, they could just drag out the legal process with endless motions and appeals until the average Joe lacked the funds to continue the fight.
