    Corporations are fined at a lower % for stolen money, than the % I'm taxed on earned money.

      At that level it isn't so much a fine as a cost of doing business.

    Run for President while in jail yet a person with a felony can't vote. Only in America.

      That never made any sense. The logic is "well criminals would just vote for someone that would give criminals all the money", but then somehow the same logic doesn't apply to actual criminals being in office?

      I would advocate guilty corporations being seized by the collectivity.. or at least seizing a part of their profits as long as the cost to society is not paid back...

    I don't understand how presidential pardons can be legal if it's used as a reward for covering up crimes or not testifying against the President himself.

    How can you maintain a country, let alone an empire on these banal basis, it's flimsy argument that they are too big to send to prison, should have added the phrase that they belong to the ruling class and the army and they are not just ordinary civilians.
