How's it uncomfortable, however?
I as an independently wealthy person (not 'rich') commit way more crimes than your average lower working class person.
Having money means getting away with more. Whether it's speeding, or doing drugs, tax evasion (I only got audited and this was an accident to begin with, before anybody starts) ... The more money you have the more immunity and options that you have. You think the working class poor would get away having done half the stuff that someone like Donald Trump
has provenly done and not have the book thrown at them?
How many working class people could survive 3500 legal actions (incl. class actions) from everything from sexual assault, to willfully breaking contracts, etc? More over, even if only an eighth of them did represent some criminal aspect (remember, breach of contract alone is not a crime) ... more court time than any working class person will likely see.
