@nogodsnomasters oh, that's just a k-shaped justice system. If, "k-shaped" sounds familiar, that's the direction our economy and healthcare are heading towards, and soon!

@SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters and lets not forget that the homeless man handed himself in, and showed remorse for his actions, while the CEO didn't...

I smell something else in that second newsicle. A judge that housed a man for 15 years in an extremely expensive state run housing program.

Disproportionate criminal sentencing is a hallmark of plutocracy & oligarchy.

The rich are very keen on famines that preserve their ill-gotten wealth too.

@madness832 @nogodsnomasters In a country that allows forced labour for prisoners, and for profit prisons. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, or if this is going to turn into "but the slaves were well cared for!"

@nogodsnomasters the former is too much leniency.
The latter one is cruel and unusual punishment.

@doctormo @stuartb @SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters Did you know that the USA allows forced, unpaid labour for prisoners, and that for profit prisons make money selling prison labour like to-order slavery? I didn't know for a long time.

@failedLyndonLaRouchite @stuartb @SeanPLynch @nogodsnomasters I can't read the snopes article, because snopes doesn't know the difference between a tracking blocker and an ad blocker.
I can read this article from Cornell though, and it does more to verify than invalidate this story.

This is what capitalism will always do, and why we must remove the capitalists from power and never allow them power again.

@nogodsnomasters I have heard stories of elderly people in the US robbing banks for small sums just to go to prison for the provided healthcare, though that says more about the healthcare system.

Alternatively, if we took a 15 year's sentence to be the standard for stealing $100, then the executive who stole $3B should get a 30,000,000 year sentence.
Yeah, a 30 million year sentence would be the executive being treated the same as the homeless man.
@SeanPLynch @stuartb @nogodsnomasters I'd prefer that the other guy gets his 3.5 seconds sentence.
