It is a great quality of the Law that it allows both rich and poor alike to pay a lot of money to avoid jail time when caught committing a crime.

In its majestic equality, the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread.

I wish I knew.

FWIW, the film Law Abiding Citizen examines a similar topic: plea bargains in criminal cases against individuals. For me, it was a great thought-experiment about how one's anger about plea-bargaining could play out. But just a warning, it has some pretty horrific scenes that you might regret watching.

Who would go to jail? Corporations are built specifically to shield the employees/owners of the corporation from liability.

Like, I know the sovereign citizen stuff is all nonsense, but this is kind of their point. They're trying to get away with the same things corporations get away with on the regular.

Because they don't actually want to stop them from doing these things. It's just a show to make it look like this 3 letter agency is actually doing something.

Because (at least in the US), money is power.

Just another form of bribing.
